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-
