1976, ANOTHER LOOK BACK @ THE NIDDY NODDY IN CROTON

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

From 1976, another look back at The Niddy Noddy! Thanks as always to one of E.C. elves.  For those who don't know, the NIDDY NODDY was a shop here in the village that specialized in knitting and related arts. Click on the images below from The Yonkers Herald.

  1. Everybody loved the Niddy Noddy. I still have my notebook from Mrs. Miller's Knitting Design classes ... always a source of inspiration. She always had HUGE pots of yarn simmering in the dye baths. She would blend yarns, light weights with bulky, alpaca with string-types, or anything else one could think of.. It was a wonderful shop.
