This store is intimidating when you walk in, with tall industrial shelving and narrow aisles, but has so much magic in stock! I came in for this pad of special paper they carry, and ended up walking out with a dozen different items! They have a bit of everything there. It has the art supplies any student would need/want, lots of craft project supplies and ideas. They also had ink bottles from many great companies - I got a phosphorescent ink just for the fun of it. They carry all shapes and sizes of baggu bags and hilarious pencil cases.

My daughter and I have wanted to visit Starlight Knitting Society since we moved here, and finally,…read moreafter many months, we managed to check them out on the first day of the 2026 Rose City Yarn Crawl. Though they were packed with other shoppers, the staff was welcoming, friendly, and helpful. We each purchased a few skeins of yarn, and my daughter picked up an adorable claw clip in the shape of a ball of yarn with knitting needles. There was a wide variety of yarn, from cost-conscious basics to mid-priced natural fiber staples, all the way to sumptuously decadent fiber yarns at a luxury price point. Their needle selection was robust, their notions and other celebratory yarn-goodies plentiful as well. There is literally something for everyone here! They also have a wall dedicated to cross-stitch/embroidery with super fun kits. I know I missed mentioning something since it was stuffed to the gills with people, and if I'm honest, I was a little overwhelmed, but we look forward to returning soon for a more leisurely amble.

First of all, the staff were some of the nicest people I have ever met. They went above and beyond to make me feel welcomed and were happy to answer any questions I had as they came up. They were also extremely friendly and seemed to want to get to know me, what projects I'm working on, and what I was looking for. Second, the selection and prices were unbeatable. Starlight Knitting Society had so many different yarns and crafting accessories to choose from at very reasonable prices. Despite wanting to buy everything in the store, I left with a Starlight Knitting Society tote bag (my new favorite bag to carry my knitting projects in) and a tension ring. I really wish I lived closer to Starlight Knitting Society. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Portland!

The tags, my task, were just good fun. Lots of room to be creative and simple to complete without assistance. The passport covers were another story. The other 2 needed assistance a lot, especially during the stitching, which took quite a bit of time and was a tad hard on their hands. The employees were more than willing to provide the assistance they needed though. There were definitely a couple other crafts I would've enjoyed trying. Fabulous concept, pleasant employees, and a cool way to spend a few hours...especially for those of us very much out of our comfort zone.

SCRAP is a boost to the imagination in ways one can only imagine (hehe), all the while helping the environment by keeping stuff out of landfills. It's a great place to donate all those things you thought you were gonna use for something or other but never got around to it and now don't want to do it. I found some watercolor tubes I'd been wanting to try out - one almost-full tube had a $20 price tag still on it - I paid $4! I'd go every week if I lived closer... you just never know what someone's gonna be donating.
