About Needle Klankers

NeedleKlankers logo

Needle Klankers is the two-woman show of mother-daughter team Lois and Taylor. These ladies have always had a love for crafts. If they could make it instead of buying it, it would make them feel happy and like they had accomplished something great!

As a child, Taylor watched her grandmother crochet, sew, quilt, and garden, but by the time she was able to understand crochet, her grandmother had Alzheimer’s and wasn’t able to teach her. Instead she learned the basics from a friend and then went on to YouTube videos to figure out the rest. Taylor found that crocheting was a big help for her severe anxiety.

When researching online for jobs she could do at home, Taylor found out more about being a crochet designer. She talked to her mom, who was all in! And, that is where Needle Klankers was born.
