I wanted to recommend Nordic Nest to those looking for knitting supplies. Anette, the owner, was absolutely lovely and incredibly helpful to my 83 year old mom who was looking for yarn and knitting supplies for a gift. Two other local stores completely blew her off when she called for assistance, but Anette was very kind not only over the phone but also texted back and forth with her a few times. We purchased some beautiful yarn at a reasonable price there today from Anette, and shortly after we left, she (as promised) even sent my Mom links to a number of websites where we could purchase patterns. Anette was great in person too, had terrific suggestions, and was very patient with my Mom. The store itself is lovely too, and we will need to return to look at the various artisanal gifts on display and available for purchase. Anette & Nordic Nest are keepers for sure!

Started knitting lessons with Anette, the owner. Such a warm wonderful and patient individual.The only down side is seeing what a klutz I am, trying to knit a simple project while she knits lightening fast without even looking.I’m an old dog learning a new trick so it will take some time. But she did have gingerbread cookies to support us!!Thanks Anette!

I could not walk by this cute shop so I had to check it out. I ended getting several pieces for my son that he just loves.I met the owner and she is super nice and a talented artist. I’d definitely check this shop out next time in San Carlos.

My 9-year-old daughter has really enjoyed taking craft and knitting lessons at Nordic Nest. Annette, the owner and teacher, has a lovely vibe when teaching. I also love the dishes they have - they are in both of my homes.

Amazing! This is my go-to stop for a variety of special gifts and knitting/crocheting yarn from Norway, Denmark and all places "Nordic". The colors and quality are unmatched for yarn, towels, rugs, and dishes. The owner, Anette, makes reasonably priced crafting kits and sells jewelry made by local artists. I've also been taking beginning knitting and crocheting classes from Anette (master crafts-person) over the past 6 months...have made many beautiful gifts for friends (and myself) with calm clear guidance along the way. We have a fun group of knitters and crocheters that now gather in the store each Thursday...join us!

This store is adorable and has a great selection of cute housewares, accessories and children’s items. I always love to pop in this store when I’m in San Carlos visiting my family. The people who work there are always very kind and offer to gift wrap purchases.

Nordic Nest is a very nice shop where you can find melamine cups and plates in very cute designs and a lot more stuff in fine European designs like greengate and others.

Darling store! Everything is so pretty there! Many pretty colors all nicely displayed. Ceramic and melamine dishes. If I lived here I would definitely have some of those pieces in my kitchen. I saw lots of really cute gift items as well. Lovely lady staffing the store and they have a nice sale section in the back.

Best place in the bay to get adorable yet durable utensils, plates, cups. A huge variety of designs to choose from, and lots of cute decorations to spruce up my home. My son loves his woven to chests, they are so unique! I won’t buy cups, plates, or utensils for my son anywhere else! Charlotte and Anette are always so helpful and friendly, cutest shop around :)
