The Creativ Festival – Hooker Alley

April 21, 2011 by TheCrochetCrowd

The Crochet Crowd - Creativ Festival Toronto Ontario

Michael Sellick, video host for http://www.AllFreeCrochet.com and http://TheCrochetCrowd.com , and The Crochet Crowd brought to life Hooker Alley at Creativ! Michael is a Canadian Crochet and Loom Knitting Guru.

He was invited to Creativ Festival in Mississauga, Ontario to inspire enthusiastic crafters on April 15 – 16th, 2011. The purpose is to engage members of his massive audience on YouTube live at the Festival. Make new connections with more viewers and see trend setting ideas at the festival.

Mikey and crew were swamped from the minute the doors opened to closing. The volunteers change from show to show depending who is available. Names from the Left Back, Mikey, Laurie, Lindsay, Colleen, Diva Dan, and front Left was Charlene and Veronica.

Mikey’s area was a partial resting area near food concessions where people could sit on the cozy benches and watch partial tutorials in motion. Many got up and eventually made their ways to the interactive tables where people could try loom knitting for the very time. For many, it reminded them of spool knitting or corking. If Mikey had a dime every time he heard that, he would have been a rich man.

About 20,000 people walked through the show for the 2 day spring event. Mikey also revealed a new to the market product for loomers. Starting May 1st, 2011 a new product will be available but we don’t let the cat out of the bag just yet. The product was a hit and sold out fast! Mikey will have this product again by his next show at the Ontario Fibre Week on May 13th – May 15th in Ancaster Ontario Canada.
