Gobsmacked Yarns to open retail shop in Sackville this Saturday

On today’s show, we talk with Marit Munson, owner and head wool dyer at Gobsmacked Yarns, which is opening a retail shop and studio on Ford Lane in downtown Sackville this Saturday. Munson’s opening coincides with Worldwide Knit in Public Day, and so the fibre arts entrepreneur has teamed up with another local wool studio, Lichen and Lace, for a mini yarn crawl on Saturday from noon to 4pm.

Plus in news briefs, Sackville-based writer Anne Koval wins a New Brunswick Book Award, Gaspereau Press is moving to Sackville in 2026, and MLA Megan Mitton wants to ban the use of replacement workers during strikes.
