Last month ABC News Boston contacted us to see if we would like to do a feature news story for the station. An interview about Mystic Knotwork and it's founder, Matt's Grandfather, Alton Beaudoin. Matt and Jill said yes. It was a fun interview, Matt is blessed with the gift of gab so listening to his answers about his grandfather, the company and even Matt's history was informative. I have been here at the shop for 6 years and heard things I never knew!
Jill was equally articulate relating the history of how she came up with the idea of adding different colored sailor bracelets to the inventory. Working with the rope company to create custom colors for Mystic Knotwork.
Oh the stories we can tell. The history of the company is unique. The News media that have been through our doors over the years are always amazed and interested.
As you'll see in the video below, Jill had a lot to say.
Megan ties a custom stripe sailor bracelet for the cameraman. Pick your colors!
Checking the fit, it's a keeper!
The anchorman gets special treatment having his bracelet fitted by Matt and Barbara.
Looking nautical!
Tying the large monkey fists takes skill and strong hands. Tools are also needed to move the rope in, around and through.
ABC's crew put together a great video, you can view it below on YouTube.
