Whether you work at home or in an office, sometimes it’s nice to be able to pick up your laptop and go work in a coffee shop for a change of pace. It’s so much more difficult when you have a sewing machine instead of a laptop.
Here is a list of Canadian sewing (and knitting lounges) lounges, that offer “sew-by-the-hour” or “knit-by-the-hour” services, from east coast to west coast. The list is short, but hopefully it will grow soon.
If you notice that any lounges are missing, just leave me a link in the comments, or get in touch.
This list was last updated on September 24, 2017. Lounges are generally listed geographically from east to west.

I just found your blog about a week ago – your lists of Canadian resources are awesome! I would add The Knit Cafe in Toronto to the knitting lounges (http://www.theknitcafetoronto.com/)Thanks so much for putting these together!
