For lovers of crafts, making clothes and everything you need for this
Lapjesmarkt or Westerstraat Market sells all kinds of fabrics, cheap clothes, leather, patches and more general goods
Lapjesmarkt - Patch Market in English - is a friendly street market that is held on Monday morning on Westerstraat in the heart of the Jordaan. It has a cosy neighbourhood atmosphere.
Westerstraat used to be a canal (the filled-in Anjeliersgracht), dug at the beginning of the 17th century, during a large city expansion plan. In 1861 it was filled in to create room for traffic.
Lapjesmarkt vendors are selling small articles used in sewing: buttons, zips, thread, poppers, ribbons, yarns, pins, needles.
But - more than the name 'Lapjesmarkt' suggests - not only curtain fabric, leather and clothing are sold at the market. You can buy here also cosmetics, new watches, and small interior decoration objects.
Also on Monday morning a flea market is held at Noordermarkt, adjacent to Westerstraat. This market is a nice place to browse around among, mostly, second-hand stuff like old books, hats, furniture, curiosa, but also unused goods from shop closures.
Lapjesmarkt is situated on Westerstraat, a former canal, between Lijnbaansgracht and Prinsengracht in the Jordaan neighbourhood.
