Interested in adding a new feather to your cap in 2016?

For all our lovely knitters, why not try your hand at crochet?  Or if you're a crochet enthusiast, how about giving the knitted stitch a go?

Variety is the spice of life, and learning a new craft can give you a lift if you feel you need a new challenge.

These 4-page black-and-white leaflets from Patons are just $2.50 each, and take you through all the basics to get you started.  They're also handy for anyone who finds themselves regularly helping friends or family on their knitting or crochet journey, as they're a great reference for anyone just starting out.

For those who are new to these crafts, or if you know someone who's expressed an interest in learning, you might also like to try one of our Learn to Knit or Learn to Crochet hampers.  We've got a knitting hamper for kids too.  They contain a small amount of suitable yarn and the needles or hooks they'll need to get going, plus a copy of either Learn to Knit or Learn to Crochet by Patons, which contains both a simple guide to the basics, and a range of easy projects to test out your new skills.  Hampers are a great way to save money whilst also setting up a basic kit for your chosen craft.
