Product Help

1. What length needles do I need

+

If your pattern doesn't state a needle length, then that often depends on you and your knitting style.

If you like to knit on the go, shorter straight needles are good (20-25cm). If you like to 'tuck' your needle under your arm, a longer straight needle length of 35cm or 40cm is best. If you are choosing circular needles to knit something 'in the round' like a sweater or a cowl, you need a length a little shorter than the circumference of your knitting so your stitches are not stretched round the needle.

2. What type of needles do I need?

+

The sort of needles that you should buy or use for a project is usually stated by the pattern that you are using. The most common type used are single pointed needles

3. How many balls of yarn do I need when substituting?

+

When substituting yarn with different meterages, you'll need to calculate the total meterage required for your project to determine how many balls of the new yarn you'll need.

For example, if your project requires 6 balls of yarn, each measuring 80 metres, your total meterage is 6 x 80 = 480 meters.

Therefore, if you are substituting with a yarn that comes in 50-metre balls, you would divide the total meterage needed for the project by the length of each ball of the new yarn.

This means you would need 480 / 50 = 9.6 balls. Since you can't buy a fraction of a ball, you would round up and purchase 10 balls of the new yarn.

This company sells quality yarn at very competitive prices. Their service is very prompt. I recently received an order with one wrong item which was dealt with immediately and very courteously. Having dealt with many similar companies, this is the best I have found for price, choice and service. I shall continue to buy their products

I ordered yarn from this company because it is listed as a family business and because of previous inadequate service from two other providers.
It was a good decision yarn in stock was despatched promptly and I was kept informed.
Thank you.
