DMC Suppliers in Kota Kinabalu

I find it a challenge to find supplies for my cross stitching hobby.  However, I am not solely dependent on Ebay, though I have favourite Ebay Sellers.  Kota Kinabalu town is not a desert for cross stithers but an oasis in a desert, so there is still hope.

DMC Suppliers in Kota Kinabalu

My favourite spot for DMC floss in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah is Syarikat Meelo, located at A47 1st Floor, Centre Point Sabah, KK and the other alternative (but with fewer choices) is Syarikat Leton (Sabah) Sdn Bhd, 1 Blok E Lrg Tiong Hwa Segama, KK. Still, they don’t provide all DMC threads – only the Mouliné Stranded Cotton Art. 117, and not all 454 colours.  But they also have Anchor floss and another brand that I’m not familliar with.

Meelo

Meelo also offers the Aida fabric but I don’t think they have Aida 14 and above. The smallest count, I think, is Aida 11. Only plain fabric, no DMC Impressions, Aida band, etc.  But who knows, they might think of expanding their collection one of these days…

As for cross stitch books, they are a rarity here in KK.  Popular/Harris bookstores offers some cross stitch books and magazines but they are quite expensive.  Luckily nowadays, there are online shops in abundant.

Update : 14.02.2017 – Sad to inform that Meelo is no longer operating at CPS KK, and I don’t know whether it has moved to another place or has closed down.  In this present economy, I see many small businesses closing down so unless somebody has better info, I’d hazard a guess that it is no longer operating.

The good news is that there are other places offering DMC floss.  For more info, please read my other post DIY Cross Stitch For Beginners.

Happy stitching! 😀

Hello! I am a mom of 5, living in the beautiful city of Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. My dream is to have more time for family trips, cross stitching, crocheting, reading, watching movies and contribute to the well-being of the community. My favourite words of wisdom is : 'Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well' -which I fail miserably when implementing.

      Yes, I totally agree, it is very hard to find craft items here in KK. But thankfully, there are now many crafters in Malaysia who offers items for sale.

      Ya, knitting needle ada di CPS, tingkat 1. Nama kedai : Meelo. Cuma, benang & barang2 lain mcm berkurangan sdh (mungkin stok baru belum sampai). Di Leton, Segama, pun ada benang, tapi jarum kait I’m not sure.

    • Zurainny Ismail

      Hi Cindy, sorry, I can’t really say. Have u tried the craft shops in Segama such as Leton? There are about 3 craft stores there, 2 on ground floor & 1 on 1st floor. I think they have pom2 balls for edgings but may not be in those wonderful colours. My usual spot is Meelo at CPS. I know the online store Yee Button do have the pom2 maker : https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.207517769282433.55767.207450882622455&type=3 , don’t know whether they sell the pom2.

    hi..I’m interested to learn how to knit.. is there any place that can teach how to knit?

    January 11, 2015
    • Zurainny Ismail

      Hi dear, one of the best places to learn knitting is on youtube – there are so many resources online that there are sure to be a few that would suit you. If you are staying in Kota Kinabalu, you could visit Da’Knit at Central Plaza and inquire. They not only sell yarns and hook for crochet & knitting but they are also happy to help newbies acquire the skill. 😀 They also have FB page that is dedicated for knitting & crochet community.
