Founder
It Started With a Stitch
It Started With a Stitch (ISWAS), a high street treasure trove which showcases around 50 independently owned UK businesses. Based in the heart of Grimsby town centre, we opened our doors on the day that Boris announced that all non-essential retail would close on the following Thursday. With a real focus on local and handmade you can also find quirky indie brands that wouldn't usually be available in Grimsby.
