“This was our third annual Holiday House and definitely the best one yet,” said Lizanne Kindler, CEO and executive chair of KnitWell Group. “Each of our iconic brands were beautifully represented by a stunning holiday assortment. What struck me the most was being able to stand in the middle of the space and take in all of the brands at once, feeling the collective power and reach of KnitWell Group as a whole. It was a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season.”
