Suggested Kit Good starter yarn and needles sold on Amazon.com are Lion Brand’s Wool Ease Chunky Yarn (avoid dark colors/shades when first learning to knit), and Brittany 10-inch long Single Point Birch Knitting Needles US Size 10, 10.5 or 11. Any other 10-inch long wood needles in those sizes are good as well. Try to avoid the more slippery aluminum and metal needles, and the “grippy” plastics. As a beginner, start with a needle texture that’s somewhere in the middle, such as wood.
