Your first knitting project.
All beginnings may be difficult, but with the help of this beginner knitting kit, the detailed knitting instructions and the accompanying video tutorial, you will be guided step by step through the knitting project and will hold your first (knitting) masterpiece in your hands in no time.
Slow Fashion. Made by YOU.
The knitting pattern will guide you step-by-step through the creation process of your New Beginnings Bag. As a final step, you will felt your New Beginnings Bag in the washing machine. The felting process will make your bag firm and sturdy. Felting also has the advantage that any small mistakes will no longer be visible. So you can start your first knitting project in a relaxed and pressure-free environment.
After felting, the bag has the following dimensions:
Width: approx. 25cm
Depth: approx. 10cm
Height (excluding handle): approx. 13cm
The knitting kit includes the required amount of wool in your chosen color, detailed printed knitting instructions, a link to the video tutorial, access to our exclusive knitting community where you can connect with numerous other knitting newbies, as well as the required knitting needles, a pack of OONIQUE stitch markers and an OONIQUE measuring tape.
Additionally, scissors and a sewing needle would be useful. These are not included in the set for sustainability reasons.
A HUGE thank you to our diligent test knitters! The New Beginnings Bags in the photos were knitted by Lena, Luisa, @pauseandpurl, @ir0nmn_dy & @ekna29.
