Testimonials

Tools:

"It was love at first sight when I saw the sterling needle sizer but alas the price, I sighed, I could find no justfication for me to buy it. When I saw the new one made in tortoise shell plastic I quickly placed my order, for 2! I thought the second one would make a nice gift for my sister-in-law for Christmas. Thank you for the second chance to own such a well designed 'artful tool'."

"Just received my 'Needle Tools' today (9/6). They are perfect! Thank you so much. I think they might be well used before they become collectors items. That's OK. I plan to enjoy them."

"Thanks so much for the wonderful mailing of the little tortoise shell needle sizers - the packaging was sensational - but THIS is truly a delight, adorable, and a great conversation starter among my fellow knitters! thanks again."

"Hi, Knitters: Today I received my Plastic Needle Sizer Tool from Clara's boutique and I only have one thing to say FABULOUS! This goes on my list of things that are the best since sliced bread. Clara, you out did yourself this time kiddo -- well you know me and gadgets, until the next time. I have mine too and it's lovely!"

"I have been looking for AGES at the silver needle sizer, desperate to own one, but just not having the cash to buy one, so when the cute little plastic one appeared on the 'Wool Shack' website I had to buy one! I have to say that its the cutest thing I have in my knitting basket, and when I went to my knitting group recently, they were all crazy for them. Its easy peesy to use and the little tin keeps it protected! Forget the square ruler style gauges, this little product is the ultimate in knitting cool! I had a look after you said you liked yours, and I decided to buy one, too. They are great, and I am going to get a couple for friends for Christmas. Got to work on my husband to buy me the silver one for christmas!!

Have you seen the needle sizers? I have three sets for gifts. Actually I bought 4 -- one for me. Will bring it to the Downtown SF Knitters next meeting to let you gals know what they are like. I have been looking for something like this for many, many moons and Clara found them."

"Denyse, the needlesizer is the coolest tool I've seen in a long time! Thanks so much for sending one my way! Your products are imaginative and elegantly crafted and I am happy to have them."
