Learn how to make knitted wire words to display or gift with this kit! This kit takes you through the full process of making wire words from scratch, including how to use a knitting mill to knit a long cord, and then how to add wire and turn it into a full word. Once you’ve got the hang of the knitting mill, this is such a fun and quick craft to do. And the results are so lovely to gift, especially names.
The kit includes detailed step by step printed and video instructions, along with a troubleshooting section to help with any issues you might come across. There are over 20 word templates to choose from as well as a guide to designing your own word from the full alphabet templates included in the kit.
There are plenty of materials included in the kit, enough to make several words. Choose from a pastel set of yarn colours (pink, lilac and turquoise) or a bright set (blue, mustard, red).
Rachel says: “I first saw knitting mills on social media and couldn’t wait to have a go. I’ve loved using it so much that I’ve run workshops and enjoyed teaching others how to use it as well! But I couldn’t find a complete kit that would teach you how to make knitted wire words from scratch at home, so I’ve created my own.”
