View Point

Yes, it’s true. The Point will be closing it’s doors for good at the end of the day tomorrow. We have unfortunately lost our lease and we have to vacate the space on very short notice. Our last day open for business will be tomorrow, Wednesday, April 29th. We do not currently have any plans for relocation.

We realize that the loss of The Point means the loss of a vital community for many of our customers. Thank you to everyone who has expressed sympathy and well wishes over the last few days. It means a lot to everyone here to know that we have suceeded in creating a friendly Happy Place (to quote one Point regular)  for knitters and crocheters in this city, as well as for visitors from all over the world.

We are receiving a flood of e-mails and phone calls in response to this news. We are all a little overwhelmed over here, but rest assured that we will respond to everyone’s questions and concerns as soon as we can. For anyone who needs some sympathetic commiseration, or would like to keep in touch with staff or other Point regulars, head over to The Point’s Ravelry group, which will remain active.
Thank you all for a wonderful four years.

Sincerely,

Staff at the Point
