Christmas Gifts for Creative People
About us
Craft and Canvas is an independent art, yarn, and haberdashery shop in Hebden Bridge. We opened in 2023 with a simple idea — stock the things that are actually worth buying, know what we're talking about, and treat our customers like the serious makers they are.
We stock Wallace Seymour, Caran d'Ache, Sennelier, Rowan, Malabrigo, Baa Ram Ewe, and everything else you'd expect from a shop that genuinely cares about what goes on its shelves. And some things you probably wouldn't expect from anywhere.
If you can't find what you're looking for — ask. We can usually source it.
