If you’re completely new to knitting, or even if you have been stitching up garments for awhile - knitting kits are a fun way for all knitters to try out new patterns and yarn!
Many larger yarn companies offer great knitting kit options, with new additions added to the line up each season. There is also a growing smaller market of independent knitters & yarn-makers that have started offering knitting kits as well.
There’s so many options and beautiful garments to make using a knitting kit. While we love the flexibility of choosing our own patterns and yarn, the ease of having the materials together is a nice feature. Sometimes kits will offer small bonuses like garment labels, video tutorials, needles, and other accessories, too.
We curated a list of resources below for you if you’re interested in trying out a knitting kit. They’re all great - there’s no particular order here!

Also, be sure to check with your LYS (Local Yarn Shop!) of any special kits or collections they might have put together. Sometimes they will offer a special discount or promotion on curated kits using the shop yarn! If you don’t have an LYS - here are two of my local shops from Indiana (they both offer shipping!): Simply Socks Yarn Company & Knitting Off Broadway
