Beloved stallholder hangs up her needles

August 26, 2024

Raglan Creative Market long-term stallholder, who set up shop in the Easter of 2014, Colleen Moore celebrates her last market in September. 

It’s rare for her to miss a monthly market, but after close to 150 markets, Colleen is looking forward to retirement. 

“I want to retire before I have to. I am finding the market very tiring. However, I am going to miss the wonderful friends I have made among the stallholders and my loyal customers.

“In the future, I will continue knitting and weaving on a smaller scale, making projects I have been thinking about for years. I still have a stash of wool to get through,” she says.  

Pop in and say farewell, and while you’re there nab yourself one of her stunning knitted creations.

Creative Market at the Raglan Old School Arts Centre, 5 Stewart St, Sunday 8 September from 10am-2pm.
