Lucky Knot Anchors New Store on King Street
Alexandria, VA – Since 1985, Andrea Ploutis and her family have been a part of the retail business community in Alexandria. Like most boutique stores in Old Town, their new store The Lucky Knot is family-owned and operated.
“All of my family is employed working in the boutiques,” Ploutis said. “My granddaughter is 8 years old and she was working here all day. She loves it and was sorting clothes and wants to start working.”
The Lucky Knot is the third boutique store owned by Ploutis and her three daughters. The family currently owns 3 Sisters and Andrea’s Boutique both located on King Street. Ploutis said she will continue to run her other stores as planned and has been working around the clock since The Lucky Knot opened July 4. Her daughter Athina Kohilas said they had to prepare quickly for the new opening since they didn’t have much time.
