Did you know knitting sparks creativity and provides mindful rhythmic motions resulting in a more positive state of wellbeing?

Our guest, Kristen Lambert, is the creative visionary behind the knitwear brand Third Piece.

Third Piece started as a passion project for Kristen after being drawn to the uniqueness of a hand knit scarf with which she immediately responded, “I need that!”

What started as a side hustle soon transitioned to something more when the buyers of Henri Bendel and Bergdorf Goodman along with dozens of boutiques came calling to carry Third Piece.

For the next few years, Kristen learned the ins-and-outs of textiles, fibers, and manufacturing, pop-ups and eventually opened up a brick-and-mortar retail location.

While recruiting the talent to craft each handmade piece, Kristen connected with the most inspiring women that wanted to knit Third Piece designs and work with the brand. Each woman had a unique experience of what knitting meant to her.

Inspired by these passionate stories, Kristen expanded Third Piece into DIY Knit Kits and began teaching thousands of people how to knit.
