Like many small business owners, Alesia Washington wears many hats. She handcrafts therapeutic knotted balls and has penned a guided journal about self-love. She offers one-on-one coaching to help people identify what is holding them back, and attracts crowds to a knitting class called Y Knit Happens. “(It’s) primarily a business surrounded around wellness … anything that may help you get from where you currently are to a place where you would like to be,” Washington, 62, of Hyde Park, said Saturday morning. Washington was one of more than two dozen vendors hawking their wares at an all-day Small Business Saturday event in Bronzeville.
