Check out our latest blog post for a helpful guide. ----- #morrisandsons #thegrannysquare #sydney #melbourne #newtown #katoomba #richmond #australia #knitting #crochet #knittersofinstagram #knitting_inspiration #crochetersofinstagram #yarnaddict #yarn #patternsupport #kmittingpatterns #knittingpattern #crochetpattern #blog #knittingguide

13.01.2022 Thank you for all your support at this stressful time. With the current recommendations we have made the difficult decision that while our online store will remain open, our physical stores will temporally close from tonight. This applies to our two Morris and Sons stores and all The Granny Squares. We will reassess the situation daily and keep you all up to date with any changes going forward. It is important to us to keep you and our staff as safe as possible and feel that ...by closing our physical stores and remaining online we can keep providing you all with the high level of service expected from us while reducing the risks. It has not been an easy decision to make but at the end of the day we feel that what we sell, while important to us all, is not really essential and so don't want to encourage customers to travel to see us in person. Our online store remains open and we will have staff answering all calls and emails as quickly and efficiently as possible during the usual shop opening hours and we are happy to try and help with all orders, questions and enquiries you may have. We're busy working on our online presence and are looking to post regular tips, tricks and projects to keep away any isolation blues. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram to see all the new ideas we have and exciting updates. Lets make this time at home a creative opportunity to try new crafts or finish some of those UFO's! If you wish to collect an order already placed, please call the individual store and arrange a collection time. New Click and Collect orders on our online store, are unavailable at this time. We appreciate all your support at this time and we would like to let you know you, and all your family and friends, are all in our thoughts at this difficult time. Kind regards, Joseph Morris CEO Morris and Sons
