2 Minute Needles started because Katharine couldn't find any nice wooden needles in the shops but now she has heaps. Our stuff is really attractive, lovely to use, and ecologically sound. It's its also nice to think of all those people in the back-blocks who can now get what they need on TradeMe. Our feedback is consistently good and people love this stuff - we know you will too!
