Stitch Set, who kindly sent me this package for review, is a monthly subscription service which delivers everything you need to complete a fun knitting project to your door every month. This includes the pattern, yarn, needles, and any accessories (buttons, clasps, etc). In addition, you’ll find custom made instructions (with photos) for all techniques needed to complete the project. Stitch Set is design for beginning knitters, but works for knitters of all skill levels.
Stitch Set ships via USPS First Class Mail in a fun purple padded envelope!
I do not knit, but I totally want to learn (just like I want to learn how to sew – I am still working on that one too). I was going to attempt this project before I did the review, but let’s be real, I probably wouldn’t have had this post up until February if I attempted that.
Each Stitch Set includes a detailed booklet full of knitting instructions. The idea is that if you have never knitted before, you will be able to learn via these instructions. I think they should consider doing a series of YouTube videos as well. I think those would come in very handy! Sometimes you just need to SEE someone to get the feel for it.
Along with the Knitting Instructions, packages also include Practice Yarn. This way you don’t have to practice with your project yarn!
The Project: Travel Mary Jane Slippers
The October 2014 Stitch Set project was “Travel Mary Jane Slippers” and included everything you needed to complete it. I think the reason I wanted to work on this immediately was because I love slippers SO much. The yarn is super soft and I think these would be fantastic to throw in your bag for traveling!
The November Stitch Set project is an adorable pair of Boot Cuffs! However, if this project isn’t for you, they are allowing you to select from ANY of their previous kits which you can find here. How awesome is that? You can sign up like normal on their website and then shoot an e-mail to Stitch Set (christine@stitchset.com) by November 5th and she’ll get your selection sent to you!
