Ovarian Cancer Fundraiser & Sidewalk Sale-April 10th

Once again our vendors will set up on the sidewalk in front of Needle Nook. We will be there from 2 - 6 PM on Saturday, April 10th. There will be many items to choose from including:

  • Baskets
  • Baby Hats
  • Wood bowls & wine stoppers
  • Felted Purses
  • Silver & wire jewelry
  • Quilted table runners
  • Tshirts
  • Knit & crochet items
  • Santa & Mrs. Santa dolls

There will be much more to choose from. This is a great time to select gifts for Mothers Day, Fathers Day, graduation or just for yourself. A portion of each sale will go towards research to find a test for ovarian cancer. Currently, no such test exists. Madame Jeri will return to read the Tarot cards. I had mine done last year and she was right on the money. So please come by on the 10th to lend a hand. We will also have a silent auction, raffle and bake sale. See you then.

Happy Anniversary Needle Nook

The Needle Nook opened on March 20, 1976. Back then I was a 31 year old who knew nothing about running a business. It's a wonder the shop survived but it did and now it's 34 years later and still going. All this is thanks to wonderful loyal customers and friends and great staff.

Come by on Saturday, March 20th and wish me a happy 34th anniversary. In turn I will give you a 10% discount on your purchases all day. This does not include classes or special events. Hope to see you then.

New-New-New







The beautiful Malbrigo Rasta yarn has arrived and is a beauty to behold. No one can dye colors like Malabrigo. The Rasta is a super bulky weight, knitting at 2 stitches to the inch. We have 10 gorgeous colors to choose from. Each hank contains 90 yards and sells for $24.00.




Lots of new yarns have arrived already. Light weight cottons and blends, sugar cane yarn and more. Above is a shrug knitted in the new Mia bulky cotton. We will offer a class on this soon.
And also shown above is a new knit bag from Namaste. It is gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. We also received circular needle cases and gadget cases from them. They look like leather but are actually faux.
Since I can't seem to put the pictures with the correct article, I'll close now and hope you will come by to see all the new items in person.
