Amanda McCarty haas opened Tide & Purl, 123 Broad St. in Schuylerville, a self described curated modern gift shop that has enjoyed a healthy response since first opening.<\/span><\/p>\n

McCarty is now looking ahead to what she hopes will be a busy holiday season.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSince opening my doors on Oct. 1, the response from the public has been overwhelmingly positive.\u00a0 <\/span>Many customers have said a gift shop was just what our village needed, and it\u2019s been such a fun\u00a0 <\/span>adventure so far seeing repeat patrons return to see what new things have come in,\u201d said McCarty.<\/span><\/p>\n

She said customers seem happy with the assortment of collections, adding that she couldn\u2019t be happier with her location.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe live in such a\u00a0 <\/span>special community here in Schuylerville and I\u2019m very proud to be here. The location is perfect with new\u00a0 <\/span>sidewalks, cross walks and a parking lot. I live right in the village which is an added bonus, there is no\u00a0 <\/span>commute, and the school is close enough that I am available if the kids need me. It\u2019s truly the perfect spot,\u201d said McCarty.<\/span><\/p>\n

McCarty was born and raised in Maine where she attended the University of Southern Maine\u00a0 <\/span>with a degree in communication and media studies. She moved to Schuylerville in 2010 and became a\u00a0 <\/span>stay at home mom, which is when she also started seriously thinking of starting her own business.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>\u201cI started my knitting brand, Crooked By Design, as something I could do for work while being home with the kids. What started as a small shop and a few markets a year\u00a0 <\/span>grew into my own website, and more markets,\u201d said McCarty.<\/span><\/p>\n

She said it was during COVID that she decided to expand and launch Tide & Purl. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe were all homebound and unable to see anyone or go anywhere with COVID. I wanted to create\u00a0 <\/span>a space where you could one stop shop for gifts and things you didn\u2019t even know you would love. Tide &\u00a0 <\/span>Purl is just that, a hand curated collection of things I love and want to share with everyone. Taking the\u00a0 <\/span>leap into brick and mortar was a dream many years in the making, and I decided the time was now\u00a0 <\/span>because I could feel myself, and others around me, craving less online shopping and more meaningful in person interactions. It felt like the perfect time to dive into being an official shop owner,\u201d said McCarty.<\/span><\/p>\n

When looking for a space to house Tide & Purl, McCarty said she knew she needed a section to serve as her knitting studio for Crooked By Design. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI get asked about classes often, and this space will also be host to crafting\u00a0 <\/span>circles, knitting discussions for all levels, one on one classes, group knits and workshops, crafts for kids,\u00a0 <\/span>and things to that effect. With winter right around the corner, I wanted to create a space where you can\u00a0 <\/span>come pickup a DIY kit for a knitting project, embroidery, basket weaving, etc. Something to keep us\u00a0 <\/span>busy and engaged in that post holiday winter stretch, \u201c said McCarty.<\/span><\/p>\n

Everything is hand curated by McCarty, including the knitwear which she makes by hand. She also does all of her own marketing and social media. She said her husband helps out when needed, and even her children have become engaged in the business.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMy kids help choose what to carry in the children\u2019s section. Its truly a family operation,\u201d said McCarty.<\/span><\/p>\n

McCarty said looking ahead her number one goal is to get the classes and workshops up and running, while continuing to grow the Tide & Purl brand.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBeing a curated shop, new things will be coming in every week and I\u2019m excited to see what the future brings for new brands, client favorites, and additional local goods. Tide &\u00a0 <\/span>Purl is just getting started,\u201d said McCarty.<\/span><\/p>\n
