Yarn Kits 

Turn this 'shopping experience' into a learning adventure as well. We know that you are searching for information about yarns and knitting patterns that are instructional. We hope to stimulate that appetite for knowledge by sharing our expertise on these subjects with you. First, the product descriptions contain lots of valuable information about the yarns included in the kit under these sub categories:

"This Kit Contains:" 

The yarn manufacturer along with both US and metric information on weight and yardage of this yarn. This is helpful if you already have comparable yarn!

"Compare Yarn Prices"

The recommended retail price as compared to the Discounted Yarn Kit Price of each individual yarn within the kit. Fashion Yarns come on larger cones weighing 1-3 lbs. - for the ease of duplicating the fashion garments. You save purchasing a kit because you don't have to purchase the 'whole cone.' Alot of projects use more than one kind of yarn - this results in even bigger saving with the Yarn Kits.

"Yarn Kit and Knit Pattern Compatability"

Tells you what 'specific pattern' this kit was assembled for. It might be a hand knit or machine knit pattern in a knitting magazine, or a book or pattern available in the online catelog. Sharon Nani contributes designs and technical articles for Inknitters Hand Knitting Magazine with Machine Knitting supplements which is destributed world wide. Sharon has been writing instructional patterns for knitting techniques and designs for over 30 years and plans on sharing some of these lessons / patterns with you.  So please be patient and check back often to see what patterns / lessons / or kits have been added to the online shopping catalog.

"Knit Pattern and Materials"

Gives a chart of the sizes included in the pattern and the amount of yarn required for each size. This way you can tell for yourself how much yarn is in the yarn kit as compared to what you need for your size. This is also important if you want to use the Yarn Kit for a pattern of your own, you can judge if you have enough yarn. Kits usually allow for approximatedly 25% more yarn then needed for the largest size. This ensures you will have yarn to practice or knit swatches.

"Care of Yarn Included in Yarn Kit"

Is always valuable information whether you purchase the kit or not!

"Yarn Kit Availability"

Most Fashion Yarn Kits are partial cones from a garment knit for the fashion industry. Therefore, there may only be ONE KIT available of a color combination. If you see something you just can't live without, take advantage of the opportunity and purchase it right away!

We hope you take the opportunity to explore the information available in our Yarn Kit Product Descriptions and perhaps you'll find one to turn into a knit project of your own. We are just getting started and have only a few kits at the moment. As the patterns get converted for our web site, we'll be adding more different fashion yarns with patterns to go with them. Contact us if you are looking for something specific, perhaps we have something in our library of patterns that will fill your needs!
