Supply Lists for the Discover Knit Classes

You are entitled to a 10% discount on all regularly priced class supplies.   

For all classes

Consider purchasing a Discover Knit and Crochet Starter Kit.  It is a Boye product with a SKU number 166806.  It contains many the accessories you will need for the knit and crochet classes.   In some stores it is found on the bottom shelf below the knitting needles.  In Wayne, they are on the knit and crochet class display shelves. 

It would be useful (but not required) for you to bring a pen or pencil, note paper, small scissors and a large (gallon size) zip lock bag

You may also like to designate a 3-ring binder for the hand outs you receive in class.  One and three-hole punches are now permanent items in my carry-all. 

Discover the Knit Class

1 skein – Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick  Choose a color that is light to medium.   Choosing very light, dark or variegated colors can make seeing the stitches difficult. 

1 set of US 13 straight knitting needles  Use may choose any material – bamboo, wood, plastic or metal.  It is easiest to learn on the shorter length needles. 

If you do not purchase the starter kit, you’ll need one large eye yarn needle.  The choice of plastic or metal is yours.  There is a set of yarn needles with upcurved ends and screw top holder.  It is made by Clover and found near the bottom of the display near the other Clover accessories.  Addition yarn needles can be found in the embroidery section in a nearby aisle. 

Discover the Purl Class

1 set of US 8 straight knitting needles  Use may choose any material – bamboo, wood, plastic or metal.  It is easiest to learn on the shorter length needles. 

2 skeins of Caron’s Simply Soft in contrasting colors  Choose colors that are light to medium to make viewing stitches easier.
