Knit. Spin. Weave.

Wabi Sabi is Ottawa's unique destination for knitting, spinning, weaving — and other fun fibre things. We hold creative fibre classes for all ages and all skill levels. So whether you are an expert or just starting out, we have plenty of projects that you will find fun and fulfilling.

Located in Hintonburg, our store also carries a wide-range of supplies, equipment, and fibre.

Rent Our Space

We adore that "Mi Casa es Su Casa" Spanish expression* so much that from the beginning we knew Wabi Sabi needed to incorporate it somehow. And so we offer our studio and equipment to you on a rental basis.
