Knitting Tools I’ll Never Buy Again (and What I Use Instead)

Some knitting notions are worth every penny… these ones weren't.
Here's what I regret buying - and what I use instead.

Some knitting tools are game changers… and some just take up space. In this video, I'm sharing all the notions that didn't quite live up to the hype for me - and what I use instead. Hopefully, this will help you avoid the same mistakes and save a little money for that special yarn you've been dreaming about. So, grab your knitting and a cup of your favourite drink, and let's talk honestly about what's worth adding to your own knitting basket.

If you enjoy slow, mindful knitting and love talking about all things yarn, you're in the right place.
