Why You'll Love This

Endless Customization

Made to suit your craft. No two makers are the same, and your binder doesn’t have to be either. Mix and match pages to store everything from cables and crochet hooks to fixed circulars, DPNs, and notions. You can even customize pages themselves for a completely personalized solution.

Find your tools quickly

Imagine all your needles—Chiaogoos, Lykkes, and everything in between—neatly stored in one place. No more rummaging through pouches or guessing sizes. With slots carefully designed for your tools, sizes labeled, and cables organized, you’ll always have what you need to start your next project.

The binder is designed to work with any of our organizer pages, all of which can be easily removed and folded closed to use on their own. Whether you’re heading to knit night or packing light for a trip, just take the pages you need and keep your tools organized wherever you go.

Handcrafted with love in Ukraine

Each binder is a true heirloom piece, meticulously handcrafted by our artisan team in Ukraine from premium crazy horse leather. Your purchase helps our skilled makers support their families through these challenging times. Made with the same care and attention to detail you pour into your projects, this is more than an organizer - it’s a lasting investment in your craft.

Leather Care Guide

For minor nicks and scratches, gently wipe the leather in a circular motion using a slightly damp, soft cloth or a wool felt buffer pad.

For advanced care, treat the leather with leather soap and wax for deep cleaning and conditioning. A complete Leather Care Kit and individual wool felt buffer pads are available for purchase.

Note that our Rose-colored crazy horse leather doesn't respond well to this treatment, so it's best to use a simple, very damp cloth on those items.

  • The craftsmanship is unbelievable. This will pass down through generations.
  • The attention to detail is just phenomenal!
  • The best needle organisation tool I've ever owned.

Beautiful Craftsmanship

The needle binder is just so beautiful and well thought out. Only a couple pages left to complete the set, but so far absolutely room for everything! I love leaving the binder out for people to look through 🧶❤️

As a knitter, I purchased the jumbo crochet

As a knitter, I purchased the jumbo crochet binder to take advantage of the pockets, along with 3 fixed needle pages, a cables organizer page, and an interchangeable Chiaogoo complete page (kicking myself for not going the interchangeable route early!). Is this a grand gesture gift to myself for accomplishing the feat of learning to knit last summer? YES- I know I’ll stick with it. Is it an uber luxury way of storing your tools? YES- my dogs continue to realize how fancy I am. Is the ~$700 I spent on this set up (including a couple needle slips and needle size markers) giving me a little anxiety and have been better spent elsewhere? ALSO YES. With the jumbo binder, and putting all my needles and items in, this binder can comfortably hold 5 pages, which is probably the max so my set up is complete at this point. It is definitely well made but expect some imperfections in the leather and some early wear and tear (which I think adds to the beauty of a craft).

I also purchased the needle slips, which are magnetic- a nice touch. The needle size markers I wouldn’t purchase again as the numbers are impossible to read without a bright light.

Once the dust settled, I realize the binder is beautiful quality but I probably couldn’t justify the cost. However that’s all subjective and I also don’t have the heart to return it given the story and mission of this company so I’ll enjoy the heck out of it!

This binder is absolutely beautiful, but fairly delicate

This binder is absolutely beautiful, I hmm'ed and haw'ed over it for weeks before purchasing it in December as a Christmas present for myself. It's well made, and has a thoughtful design where you can add as many pages as you can fit which I love so much. However, the leather scuffs very easily. Like very easily, so much so that if it gets jostled in my project bag, the ends of my needles are scratching the leather. I understand it's real leather which does scuff easily, but for a product that ended up costing $300, I'm a little disappointed. Some people may enjoy the rustic look of gently loved leather, unfortunately I am not one of them.

Hi Meagooo, Thank you so much for treatng yourself to our binder! It’s wonderful to hear that you’re enjoying the design and the flexibility of adding your own pages.

We understand your disappointment regarding the scuffs. Because we use high-quality, authentic leather, it does develop a unique character over time. However, if you aren't a fan of that rustic look, you can often buff out those surface marks with a soft cloth or a bit of leather conditioner.

I was looking for something to neatly organized and store all of my knitting items. I wanted something that was classy and would survive many years of use. I absolutely love my binder and pages and look forward to filling my binder. It is beautifully crafted. Far exceeded my expectations on organization. What a wonderful Christmas present from my husband!

A place for everything and everything in its place

How many times do I run across an innovation that is truly remarkable, that makes a process so much more efficient, that in it's beauty, simplicity, and function induces me to say, 'I bet a woman invented that.'

Behold the Thread & Maple Needle Binder.

Invented by women to provide us yarn-loving crafters with solutions, it is a gamechanger.
-Customizable - pay for what you need.
-Gorgeous - the leather is amazing, but it's not just another pretty face. This thing is stout! It's an investment, sure, but it will hold up.
-Efficient - I love opening it up and having everything I need in one place. It helps keep my mind straight as I'm planning my next project.

No, T&M did not ask me to write this and no, I did not receive anything for writing this. I just really believe in this product and if you're on the fence, go ahead and put it in your basket. You won't regret it.

I wish I could add more photos, but these were taken outside on the front porch so you can see what the whisky color looks like in natural light. I also posted the page with my Knitter's Pride needles bc I got it during the seconds sale and you cannot tell it is any different from the other pages. T&Ms standards are very high.

I've been looking, most of my life, for a way to organize my needles

Every so often, I would search the internet for a storage system for my knitting needles. I've purchased organizers in the past, only to be disappointed when the system did not sufficiently hold all my needles. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this product on my last search. I purchased the binder and a page to hold my fixed circular needles. It's like the designer was in my head. These were made for me. Yes, the cost is high, but the quality is high. I will be purchasing more pages.

Best Knitting Organizer EVER!

Not only is this knitting binder beautiful, it’s also SO functional! I purchased this binder in hopes that maybe I’d be gifted a page for my birthday or Christmas to add to it, but I just couldn’t wait. I ended up buying the binder and within two weeks I ended up with 4 additional pages! I got the whiskey color and it’s absolutely stunning! Thread and Maple have truly thought of everything and the details are amazing! I can finally have all of my supplies stored in one place! Thank you to the Thread and Maple team for being so great at answering questions and for your excellent customer service!
