Velona Needlecraft

Super friendly and they have a huge selection! Love this store.

Making my first ever knitting project (baby blanket) and managed to goof it up. Stopped by here and she set me straight in about 2 seconds. I’ve spent nearly 2 hours trying to figure it out! Will definitely be coming back for classes & yarn in the future. THANK YOU!!!

Love this store! Mega variety of yarns… i was in yarn heaven! Velona is the most sweetest an funniest ladies and so so helpful. Loved her:)

Very very helpful… amazing store… so happy with my purchase… Hobby Lobby sold me the incorrect count Aida fabric, and didn’t cut per my instructions. luckily I realized after I had only completed one page of a twelve page pattern that the pattern would not fit on the fabric I had purchased.

My favorite yarn store of all time. Rose and her husband are such good, kind people. Plus, they have *all* the yarn!

This is the best yarn shop in town! They have an amazing selection of hand spun and imported fibers. The owners are lovely, helpful and appreciative which is such a nice change! This place is gold for any weaver, knitter or crocheter. Highly highly recommend!

I just found this shop again! Even though it is primarily a knitting shop (I don’t knit), I always manage to find just the book I have been searching for. They carry books that even Amazon doesn’t have! Ones from Europe that are amazing. I can only imagine what their knitting ones are like. The area is so nice to visit, easy to park. You can shop there forever, in peace and quiet.

Rose, you are the most amazing person! So knowledgable and kind. Your shop is a wonder of items for the fiber artist. I don’t thing there is a yarn a person cant find! Even tho it takes me almost an hour to drive to your wonderous shop, it’s always a pleasure. Kakos is also so kind and creative. What a great couple.
To all those that seek fiber, go to Velona, you will not be disappointed. Knittikng, crocheting, needle work, you name it and it is there. The Knitting of OZ… Fred

This yarn selection is delightfully overwhelming! So if you come, make sure you have multiple patterns ready.
Rose is such a genuine and lovely lady. A guest came in, newbie knitter just needing help. Rose helped her immediately and sent them on their merry way.
There are mounds of knitting magazines and books to peruse. Many yarns that I’ve never seen including hanks from Germany, Sweden and Italy.
If you go with a pattern, prepare yourself to hunt. The other +plus is that most colorways had multiple balls available so you can plan cardigans and the like.
If she’s knitting when you arrive, watch out! I’m sure I saw flames from her needles she was knitting so fast!
It was so nice to meet you, Rose and I can’t wait to return!

This shop is a bit of a drive for me but always worth it. Today I went because I had run out of yarn just a few inches short of finishing a rather complex beaded shawl. I never thought I would be able to match the yarn. The shop owner had the brilliant idea of trying tapestry wool. We found some that was an almost perfect match.
Thank you for saving my shawl!

This is a really wonderful shop. Rose is super sweet and extremely helpful! The selections of yarn and knitting supplies are second to none. I definitely recommend this store if you’re looking for something unique and special :)

They have an incredible selection. This shop is definitely for the serious knitter. The owners have over 35 years experience. They are conveniently located right off of the 91 freeway.

Had a great experience the first time I visited Velona. This review is regarding the professionalism of the business. This is a specialty store, meaning patrons that decide to visit this business are purposefully driving a long way out of their way for the sole purpose of supporting this business. Therefore they should take care to maintain their hours appropriately updated.
On Velona’s website, their hours are:
Mon-​Fri 10 – 6, Sat 10 – 5, Sun 12 – 5
Actually posted on their window:
Mon & Wed-​Fri 10 – 6, Tue 10 – 7, Sat 10 – 5, Sun 12 – 3. I spent an hour driving on my Sun in traffic fruitlessly.
Very disappointing day and wasting gas, and no yarn for my project. Velona should take care to not have patrons suffer such a day without being able to truly review the business.

The store just relocated 4 months ago so a lot of the items still need to be arranged. You might see some Cascade 220 in one aisle then some on the other aisle. The owner, who mainly works by herself, is still working on putting some yarns out on the shelves. Some shelves still need price tags. But all in all, it’s still a great store. I will definitely come back when I’m in town again.

I went here during a vacation and it was well worth it. They have a large cross stitch /​needlework selection. Everything was easy to find and well organized. The owner was also is very helpful and knowledgable.
