Beginner Materials

When starting your knitting journey, having the right materials can make all the difference. Here’s what we recommend:

  • Lion Brand's Hometown in Fort Lauderdale Coral
    • This is a bulky weight acrylic yarn, ideal for beginners as it’s easier to hold onto. Thicker yarns help you see your stitches more clearly and make learning simpler.
  • 10mm Bamboo Needles
    • Bamboo or wooden needles are great for beginners because they have a nice surface drag that grips the yarn, making it less slippery to work with.

These materials will set you up for success as you learn the basics of knitting.
