New York Times Wirecutter picked our Learn To Knit Kit as one of the best fiber craft kits for adults, and it's easy to see why! With super inspiring yarn and confidence-boosting instructions, our kit will catapult you or someone you love from a what's-a-purl-stitch knitter to a look-at-this-incredible-scarf-I-made knitter! Here's why our Learn To Knit Kit is officially the best...

• Experience You Can Trust: We've been teaching people to knit for over 20 years, and we've poured every bit of that experience into our Learn To Knit Kit. The yarn is the ultimate choice for a beginner, and the instructions follow a time-tested method of teaching that has created thousands of lifelong knitters!

• Yarn You'll Love: It's been known to happen that a beginner knitter starts with someone's castaway, moth-y, old yarn, thinking they'll use nice yarn next time. But there is no next time, because yucky yarn is no fun, and it turns out, beginners care about what feels good just as much as seasoned knitters do! The kit includes two skeins of our Super Soft Merino, a generous single ply of 100% merino wool that is as soft and approachable as you can imagine. It also comes in over three dozen amazing colors. Because your first knitting project plants a seed, it's important that it grows in exactly the color that inspires you. The wild pop of Super Pink or the soft quiet of Oatmeal Gray, you get to choose what spirit you bring to your learning! 
  

• Crystal Clear Instructions: We'll hold your hand through each and every step of knitting your first scarf, from winding yarn into a ball to the finishing touches that make you proud of what you've accomplished! 

• 3 Patterns To Choose From: You'll gain enough knowledge to knit any of three scarf patterns (garter, ribbed, or seed stitch... you'll know what all that means, too!). After all, just because you're a beginner doesn't mean you don't have an opinion about what kind of scarf you want to make!
  

• You Have A Choice Of Kits: This kit is the sibling to our Learn To Knit A Cowl Kit... They're similar but different! Both kits are for first-time knitters and both come in a charming pink tube packed with 2 skeins of Super Soft Merino, the same basic how-to-knit instructions, and everything else a new knitter needs. The difference is that this kit teaches you how to knit a scarf “flat” with straight knitting needles, and the Cowl kit teaches you to knit a tube with circular knitting needles. Scarf or cowl, you can start out as a true beginner with either kit and both are life-changing gifts for anyone with a hankering to learn how to knit!

When you give someone a Learn To Knit Kit, you're giving them so much more... You're unlocking a world of creativity and inspiration, of comfort and joy. We really do believe that discovering knitting can change someone's life, one stitch at a time... What an amazing gift!
