Choosing your first kit

Read the full beginner guide
01

Pick the craft

Crochet uses one hook and forgives mistakes. Knitting uses two needles and drapes softly. Embroidery needs no counting at all.

02

Pick a small project

A coaster, a small animal or a hoop you can finish in a few evenings teaches more than a blanket you put away.

03

Add yarn and a spare tool

One extra skein and a second hook or needle size cover the moment the kit runs short.

04

Read the pattern through

Before the first stitch, read every step once. It is the habit that saves the most unpicking.

Every good project starts with a single loop.

A slip knot, a first row, a needle through linen. We sell the things that get you there and keep you going.

Made for winter evenings

Kits

A first project, gathered

Each kit brings the main pieces for one project together. The listing says what is included, so you know before you order what else you might need.

Yarn

The next skein, ready

Yarn by the bundle in calm, wearable colors, for the second project and the one after. Matching a kit to yarn is the easiest way to keep going.

Tools

Small things, used daily

Hooks, needles, project bags and yarn bowls. The pieces that keep a project tidy between evenings and travel with it when you leave the house.

Kit plus yarn

Order the second project too

Most kits cover one project. Add yarn and a spare hook or needle to the same order and the next one is already waiting. US shipping is free from $79.

Questions before you begin

Image to make: Side by side on oatmeal linen: a small crochet swatch with a hook resting in its last loop, and a knitted swatch still on two wooden needles, warm lamp light.

Crochet or knitting: which first?

Both crafts turn a strand of yarn into fabric. They feel different in the hand, suit different projects and go wrong in different ways. Here is how to choose your first.

Read the guide

Best yarn and hook to start

Yarn labels list a weight, a fiber and a suggested tool size. Here is how to read them, and which combination makes learning easiest.

FAQ

Good to know first

More in the full FAQ.

Is crochet or knitting easier for a beginner?
Crochet is usually easier to start, because you work one loop at a time with a single hook. Mistakes unravel back to one stitch. Knitting is just as learnable but keeps many stitches live on two needles.
What should I check before buying a kit?
Check the listing for what is included and the finished size. Contents vary from kit to kit, so the description tells you whether yarn, tools and a pattern are in the box, and what you might add.
How long does delivery take?
Delivery takes 8 to 16 days to US addresses. Shipping is free on orders over $79. Orders are fulfilled by our supplier partners, which is why the window is longer than a local store.
Can I return a kit I have started?
Returns cover unused items within 30 days of delivery. A kit with yarn already worked cannot be resold, so it is not returnable. Email us first and we will send the return steps.
Do you sell yarn on its own?
Yes, yarn is sold on its own in the Yarn collection, by the bundle. It is the simplest way to repeat a project you liked or to give a kit pattern a second color.
