KnitPicks: my picks & discount tips
I’ve enjoyed using KnitPicks yarns for many years – they have lots of varieties and colours to choose from, from basic acrylics to fancy bases like merino and alpaca at reasonable prices. I made all the projects in Everyday Crochet with KP yarns and they all turned out beautifully:
A selection of my book patterns; pretty yarns make pretty projects!
So I wanted to let you know that KnitPicks is having an amazing sale on yarn right now, with up to 60% off! I’ve just stocked up on enough to make a few new sweaters for the winter. And, if that’s not enough, I have bonus coupon codes for you to make the deals even better.
I always like to stack discounts wherever I can to get the best possible deals, so read on for my top tips for saving money with a KnitPicks order, and my recommended tools to buy:
Free Shipping
KnitPicks offers free shipping over $75 USD (US/CA), £85 (UK), $120 AUD (AU) if you want to replenish your stash or stock up on tools. If your shopping cart is anywhere near those totals, try adding a couple more balls of yarn or a tool or two to push it over the limit, and the extra cost will be partially or totally offset by the shipping savings.
I took complete advantage of this: I was at $65 + $10 shipping, so I added $10 more yarn, still paid $75 total, and got 5 extra balls of yarn for no extra cost!
Bonus Coupon Codes
These are the best current offers at the time I write this post (click here to see all the current offers) – you can stack one of these with this sale:
- If you’re buying lots of yarn from the same line: buy 10+ of any single yarn line (you can mix colours) and save 10% with code MYYARNPACK
- If you want to try knitting for the first time, or try some new needles: spend $65+ and and get a free Try It Needle Set with code TRY2024
I used the second code: I’d save $5 on my yarn with the 10% code, but the needle set is worth $15 and I want to try their steel and birch needle tips and get some extra cables, so that was a better deal for me.
My Favourite Tools
I have a few favourite tools from KnitPicks that I use all the time, so I’ve made a page that links directly to each of them.
If you’d like to see my recommendations, or are looking for a little something to push you over that free shipping limit, here are
My Recommended KnitPicks Tools >>
I think we could all use a way to make our dollars stretch a bit further these days, and I can’t wait for my haul of bargains to arrive! In case you’re wondering, here’s my shopping list (I can’t use wool, so I’ve had to miss out on some other lovely-looking yarns):
- I’ve stocked up on Brava Recycle – it’s a recycled acrylic yarn in lovely heathered neutral colours, and with the
sale price I’ve bought enough to make several sweaters with it. - I grabbed a ball of Brava 500 – that’s 500g of yarn in a single ball, and some colours are reduced to half price. I should be able to make an entire sweater from a single ball – wow!
- And I restocked on my favourite no-rinse wash, Soak. I’ve been using this for well over a decade, to wash all my handknits and delicates, and even to soak the grime off pet collars and purses. It works like magic!
This particular yarn sale ends on Nov 27th, but there’ll be more KnitPicks sales coming up for Black Friday and beyond (see all the current sales here), and I hope my tips on deal stacking and my list of recommended tools will be useful whenever you read this post! Happy yarn shopping – and saving 😉
I do have a KnitPicks affiliate link, so if you shop through any of my links I’ll receive a small commission from your order at no cost to you, but you know that I only ever give genuine recommendations – this is not a sponsored post!
