My Knitting Supplies List
Whether you’re following one of my free patterns, learning a new stitch, or just hunting for your next favorite gadget, these are the exact yarns and tools I personally use and love.
🪡 Needles I Can’t Knit Without
Clover Bamboo Needles
These are my favorite everyday needles. The bamboo has just the right amount of grip so your stitches don’t slide off — perfect for lightweight yarns and tutorials.

KnitPicks Interchangeable Needle Set
If you knit a lot of different projects, these are a lifesaver. You can switch out cords and tips in seconds without buying 20 pairs of needles.
➡️ Available at KnitPicks (affiliate link)
KnitPro Dreamz 6″ Double Pointed Needles
For socks, sleeves, or hats knit in the round, these are my go-to DPNs. They’re smooth, lightweight, and color-coded by size — which makes grabbing the right set so much faster.

🧵 Yarns I Keep Coming Back To
KnitPicks Heatherly Sport
This yarn is my go-to for baby garments, tutorials, and soft accessories. It’s gentle, washable, and comes in the prettiest colors.

Lion Brand Coboo
A cotton and bamboo blend that’s perfect for tees and dresses. It drapes beautifully and doesn’t overheat — I’ve used it in several of my dress and tee patterns!

Hobbii Unicorn Yarn
If you love self-striping socks or colorful knits, this one’s a winner. The colors fade like watercolor and the yarn has just the right amount of stretch.

A light and airy yarn that feels like a cloud but knits up with great structure. Perfect for lacy bonnets and soft photo props.

A smooth, easy-care yarn that’s ideal for family knits and baby items. It has that “woolly” feel without being scratchy.

✂️ Tools & Notions I Actually Use
Lantern Moon Crochet Hook
This is what I grab when I drop a stitch — and I drop plenty. The smooth finish makes it easy to scoop loops back into place.

Yarn Needles
The little things matter — these come in both plastic and metal in every size you could ever need with a metal case. Perfect for finishing seams or weaving in ends.

Stitch Markers
I use bulb stitch markers so I can color coordinate my increases, decreases. They save my sanity during sleeve, raglans and lace repeats.

Row Counter Ring
So this isn’t in my knitting bag but my 12yr old daughters. It looks like jewelry but keeps track of where you are in your project. Keeps her from losing track of rows when she puts down a project and comes back the next day.

Tri-Glide Buckles
If you’re making knitted bags like my Cable Crossbody Bag or Peter Purse, these are perfect for adjustable straps and a polished finish.

🧶 Yarn Swift & Ball Winder
Yarn Swift
If you’ve ever tried to wind a skein of yarn without one of these, you know the struggle — tangles, knots, and tears (usually mine). A yarn swift holds your skein in place and spins as you wind, keeping everything smooth and organized.
➡️ Shop yarn swifts (affiliate link)
Ball Winder
Pair your swift with a ball winder, and you’ll never go back to hand-winding. It transforms hanks into neat center-pull cakes in minutes, ready for knitting. I use mine almost daily — it’s one of those tools that feels “extra” until you try it, then it’s essential.

🧼 Blocking & Finishing Supplies
Blocking Mats
If you’ve ever knit lace, you know blocking is what turns a crumpled pile into something beautiful. These mats fit together like puzzle pieces so you can block anything.
➡️ Get them here (affiliate link)
Blocking Combs
I absolutely love these. They make pinning so much faster. They’re sturdy enough for sweaters and won’t rust on damp projects.
➡️ Buy blocking combs (affiliate link)
Handheld Clothing Steamer
If you’re short on space or just want a fast way to smooth out projects, this is a game changer. It relaxes fibers gently without soaking and dries in minutes.
➡️ Shop steamers (affiliate link)
Eucalan Wool Wash
No rinse, gentle, and leaves your knits smelling clean instead of perfumey.
➡️ Shop wool wash (affiliate link)
🧺 Organization & Storage
Project Bags
I love carrying my projects in pretty bags. Plus, they keep yarn clean and untangled.
➡️ Shop project bags (affiliate link)
Needle Cases
Finally — a home for all those needles. Keeps everything organized so you don’t rebuy needles you already own (guilty).
➡️ Find one here (affiliate link)
Yarn Bowls & Baskets
Keeps your skeins from rolling across the floor mid-row (we’ve all been there).
