Did You Know?

Research has shown that activities like knitting and crochet lower blood pressure, reduce depression and anxiety, slow the onset of dementia, and help with feelings of loneliness and isolation - something that I think all of us have been struggling with during this global pandemic at one time or another. The WFH (work from home) lifestyle that so many companies around the globe have adopted has come with its own set of hurdles when it comes to fostering company culture and connecting teams across the country or even the world, while also thinking outside the box for innovative activities that foster a positive workplace community. 

Knitting Brings People Together

We can help bridge the gap for you and your colleagues with our range of knitting and crochet kits. Our very popular Zero To Knit Online Beginner Knitting Course and Kit is an excellent option for teams looking for a virtual activity that can be experienced in a safe, socially distanced manner - while also at the same time learning new creative skills to show off to your colleagues, friends, and family on your next Zoom call! You will be in the hands of renowned Irish knitwear designer and instructor Carol Feller who will, through a series of online videos, guide you through your very first wobbly stitches all the way to knitting your own hat and more!

Or perhaps a knitting kit from TOFT, for instance the popular Fen Hat Kit, Loch Hat Kit, or Alumen Scarf Kit, might be more what you and your team are interested in experiencing together. These TOFT kits are perfect for beginners as they contain everything necessary - from needles to yarn - to cast on a simple beginner project and can be completed in an evening. The ultimate instant gratification project to boost self esteem and team morale!

Perhaps the Knit How Beginner Cowl Kits are more aligned to the needs of your team. These beginner cowl kits include one copy of the popular Knit How book from Pom Pom Press, needles, and enough yarn to complete one of the two beginner cowl patterns included in the book. As an added bonus, the book includes so many excellent beginner knitting patterns for you and your colleagues to continue learning and exploring the world of knitting together.
