ABOUT WE ARE KNITTERS

★ What’s in a kit? Everything you need to achieve your knitting project: the exact number of skeins of yarn you need, the beechwood knitting needles, the pattern with step-by-step explanations to knit the project.

★ Quality is central to everything they do. We Are Knitters’ luxurious yarns are available in: Peruvian chunky wool yarn, Peruvian petite wool yarn, Pima cotton yarn, Merino Superwash, Baby Alpaca, and the Tape yarn, and We Are Knitters kits are the only of their kind to include only 100% natural wools.

★ Minimal plastic policy – WAK avoids using plastic where ever possible e.g. kits come in an eco-friendly paper bag and 100% beechwood knitting needles and crochet hooks.

Not only do you learn a skill and get a finished piece at the end, but there are also a multitude of benefits for your health, including:
