A New Addition to our Rewards Program: Project Bingo!

We’ve got a fun new game to play this year! Starting on January 1st, 2026, complete different types of projects using yarn purchased at our shop to get a bingo (or multiple) and win prizes in 2027! This game is for our regulars, our yarn-die-hards, our in-it-for-the-long-haul crafters.

For each type of project you make & submit to your Project Punch Card in 2026 we will check off a bingo box for you. At the end of the year you'll win prizes for each bingo, in addition to the usual rewards you earn by showing us your projects!

  • "A much needed third space

    This store is a true gem. The staff are so kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. I have met new friends organically here and that is a truly wonderful thing to have in New York. Cleo's is so much more than just a store, it is community."

  • "My favorite weekend event in NYC

    I love coming to happy hours at Cleo's! the vibes are wonderful and I get to meet such interesting people. I also get to talk knit/crochet to the nerdiest degree, which I don't get every day."

    I've only been to a handful so far and it is the perfect antidote to a bad day! Such a welcoming, warm group and surrounded by a rainbow of yarn walls. Can't wait for these to become part of my routine!"
