Yarn Rebels is more than just a business—it’s a movement
powered by Krystal’s unapologetic authenticity. A happily
married music lover and proud mother , Krystal thrives on love,
laughter , and a touch of rebellion.
Growing up in rural Alberta with her younger brother and
close-knit family, she discovered her passion for arts and crafts
through her grandmother and mother. Years of experimenting
with her mom’s old supplies eventually led her to her first yarn
festival, where she fell in love with the vibrant fiber arts
community.
Now, nearly a decade later , Krystal travels across Alberta, uniting
like-minded yarn enthusiasts wherever she goes. Her journey
wasn’t without challenges—a love for craft beer , a cheeky sense
of humor , and an unfiltered personality set her apart from more
traditional crafters. However , rather than conforming, Krystal
embraced her uniqueness and created a knit night for
unconventional makers, fostering deep connections and
igniting the Yarn Rebels spirit.
Krystal’s love for the Alberta Prairies and Rocky Mountains fuels
her creativity and sense of adventure. T o fulfill her soul and
share these experiences with others, she founded Rebel Heart
Retreats—a space that blends creativity, community, and the
beauty of nature into unforgettable experiences. Yarn Rebels
celebrates inclusivity, boldness, and fierce authenticity. It’s a
brand for creative enthusiasts who value being real over being
admired.
Through the ups and downs of life—including a global
pandemic, the milestone of turning 40, and a health
crisis—Krystal has embraced the mantra:
Be unapologetically yourself, and you will find your people.
