If the listing says chart, book or pattern this is ONLY for the chart, book or pattern not the finished product or kit.

I used to own a yarn/needlework store about 20 years ago and I will be listing tons of vintage knitting, needlepoint and cross stitch patterns, books and kits so please keep looking. Please email if you need more details or a picture of something in particular. Any glare or blurriness is from my camera.

I classify condition based on how the item looks. If it is brand new- it has no markings but may have a price sticker- there may be some very light storage or store handling-usually these items come directly from my wholesale sources. Like new means it is almost in brand new condition but has been previously owned and lightly used. Very good has been lightly used and may have a little bit of damage and/or markings and sometimes the covers get most of the hits while the inside is much better quality. Good means that it has been used and there is some damage and/or markings. Acceptable means that it has been heavily used and I usually only list this quality if it's a rare or hard to find item.  PLEASE NOTE- an old price on an item does not dictate the current price, something that cost $1.00 in 1970 may be much more valuable in today's market due to rarity, if it is out of print, availability and if it is vintage or a limited edition.

All my items come from a non-smoking home-

IF YOU ARE PURCHASING MORE THAN ONE ITEM PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL I HAVE PROVIDED AN INVOICE WITH THE COMBINED SHIPPING CHARGES- also note that sales on ebay.com may ask for immediate payment, if you want to make multiple purchases go to ebay.ca and you should be able to back out without paying immediately.  I only include cardboard if the shipping charge allows so please contact me if you want to confirm if your package will contain protective cardboard- sometimes it will require a higher shipping cost. 


Items are shipped from Canada. Please allow at least 14 business days, more if there's a holiday in my country or yours.

Any international transactions may be subject to customs and duty charges in YOUR country.  These are the responsibility of the buyer.  EBay is faulting sellers who do not deliver within their estimated delivery time which is not long enough so I've had to change my listings to 3 day handling times-  I will still be shipping the day of payment or the first business day after.
