For generations, a child's first knitting experience included a simple thread spool and some yarn. With these simple objects, beautiful knitted tubes are created that can be made into coiled hot pads, bracelets, decorative accents and many other exciting projects. The Harrisville Designs Traditional Spool Knitting Kit includes: a spool knitter, 100% wool yarn, a plastic tapestry needle, and complete instructions.

Harrisville Designs has been spinning 100% Virgin Wool Yarn in Harrisville, New Hampshire for over 50 years. As one of a handful of woolen mills left in this country, Harrisville's textile tradition is rich and dates back to 1794 when the first of several mills was built across the Nubanusit River to harness the water-power necessary for carding fleeces brought down to the village from local hilltop farms.
