ABOUT

Knit Magic offers, creative wellness through a combination of life coaching, knitting therapy and traditional classes.

In addition to our conventional private and group classes, we offer ground-breaking programs in the areas of personal growth, illness recovery, charity outreach, and smoking cessation. We also run a successful after-school division called The Brainwaves School of Creative Arts.

Our mission is to enrich lives, enhance creativity, reduce stress, and improve overall health through knitting, and we believe absolutely everyone can benefit from it

Knit Magic was founded in 2005 by Karen Zila Hayes, a life coach, creative empowerment specialist and multi-media artist. Karen started knitting almost by accident, never dreaming that she’d someday be one of Canada’s experts on knitting therapy, but the story of how it all came to be is a great one.
