Threads of Memory and Meaning

Silver Threads was certainly a special place for Iva, who often reflects on her experiences there with fondness. When she and Tim lived in Franklin full-time, Silver Threads and Golden Needles (the original store name) quickly became one of her favorite places. Linda Hornis, the original owner and a woman of impeccable taste and vision, recognized a need in downtown Franklin for a shop like this: one that celebrated the slow, intentional beauty of handcrafts and offered a welcoming space to create and connect.

Iva still remembers the joy of weaving a scarf on a loom, surrounded by textures and colors that seemed to carry stories of their own. She purchased a few cherished skeins of yarn and knitting needles, ready to bring small projects to life—each stitch tied to a memory of that special place.
