FAQs

It's my first time knitting, which kit is right for me?

We recommend starting with a kit labeled as 'My First Project' or 'Beginner.' Start with the basics, and soon you'll be unstoppable!

What's the best beginner friendly fiber?

Definitely The Wool. Because it is a thick yarn you will see results pretty fast and it won't take you a lot of time to complete your project.

What do WAK kits include? Do they contain everything needed to start knitting?

Yes! A kit includes everything you need:

  • the yarn
  • the knitting needles or crochet hook
  • the digital step-by-step pattern which is sent by email and accesible through the QR code on your kit label
  • a tapestry needle, and a textile label to give the final touch to your project!

How many skeins do I need to make a blanket?

It really depends on the size of the blanket, but usually 5-6 skeins of The Wool should be enough.

Do you have video tutorials?

Of course we do! You can visit the video section of our website and you will find lots of tutorials you can watch as much as you want. There are videos for every level and all techniques.

¿Where do you ship to? (and where do you ship from?)

We have two warehouses: one in the US that ships nationwide and Canada and another one in Germany that ships to Europe and rest of the world. If you want to check the complete list please click on "Shipping" in our footer

Can I choose the color I want? How do I select the color I want?

Of course you can! When visiting the product page, you will be able to select the color you prefer among all our options.

Straight vs Circular needles, which to choose?

We usually recommend straight needles for beginners. Circular needles are perfect for working projects in the round.

Do you have discount for new customers?

Yes we do! You just need to subscribe to our newsletter in the footer of this website and you will receive instantly a discount code. Enjoy!
