I recently planned an afternoon visit with my daughter to Newport from Hingham, MA, on the south shore of Boston. My daughter and I had such a nice visit at the shop and chatted with Miss B and made an afternoon out of it. A visit to Lycette was the reason I motivated to get to Newport for the day. So whatever you are doing is working well! I love how warm and welcoming your brick and mortar is and somehow you also convey that in your social media presence, too. In many ways becoming a chain goes against the hobby of needlepointing, itself! Slowing down and focusing on a craft rather than scrolling and rushing around is part of the joy I find in needlepointing. Your store really embodies this vibe so bravo and thank you for that!

I think you need a summer store to begin with. Think about Harbor Springs, Michigan.

Selfishly, I wish you would open a store in Naples!!!

I ❤️ everything Lycette! I love your style and brand so much!

I, too, hope to visit your Newport one day!

Thank you!! While we won't be opening a store in Naples we will definitely be popping up again this winter, and I can't wait to visit. I adore Naples!

I agree with you, and support your reasoning. Keep up the good work. Hope to visit your store in Newport someday.
