Welcome to 3 Kittens Needle Arts! We are a full-service needlework store, serving customers for over 30 years. We cater to knitters, needlepointers and crocheters with over 1000 yarns, hundreds of knitting and crochet patterns, a large selection of hand-painted canvasses and needlepoint threads, buttons and other accessories to make your craft more enjoyable, and many classes to stimulate your imagination.

Online Needlepoint Trunk Show

We are excited to be able to offer our customers a fun selection of wonderful hand-painted canvases online at our trunk show pricing. All canvases presented on our Trunk Show page are available at 15% off retail price, and if you're a 3K Club member you can take 20% off. Quantities are limited to one canvas each and as they sell, we'll be adding more canvases, so check back often.

You can now purchase Stitch Cooperative patterns online through us. Stitch Cooperative is a group of independent knit and crochet designers, including Robyn Chachula, Annie Modesitt, Kristen TenDyke, Dora Ohrenstein, Shannon Okey, Amy O'Neill Houce, Sivia Harding and more.
