Knitting & Crochet

Knitting and crochet are relaxing ways to make something for the home, and this section focuses on patterns and accessories for exactly that. Think chunky throws for the sofa, textured blankets for the bed and decorative cushions you made yourself.Most of what’s here are patterns rather than yarn. There are crochet books full of mandala-style throws, a lace mandala cushion pattern, a step-by-step loom knitting guide for afghans and bed runners, and easy blanket and cushion patterns in super chunky and DK weights. Check each pattern for the yarn weight, hook or needle size and skill level before buying wool to match. We also stock packs of locking stitch markers and safety pins, which are useful for marking rounds, holding dropped stitches and keeping track of pattern repeats.Browse more crafts and hobbies, or read how to style a throw on a sofa.
