About the Brand
The Knitting Network is an online retailer specialising in knitting and crochet supplies, launched in 2016 with a craft heritage stretching back over a century. The brand draws on expertise from the team behind Woman’s Weekly magazine’s celebrated knitting and crochet features — a publication read by more than 600,000 people each week. It serves hundreds of thousands of UK crafters monthly and has become a go-to destination for both beginners picking up their first pair of needles and experienced knitters looking for fresh challenges.
The product range spans yarn, knitting needles, crochet hooks, patterns (including digital downloads), kits, accessories, and craft books. Prices are accessible — needles and accessories start from under £2, kits from under £5, and books from just £1. Digital patterns arrive by email within 24 hours at no delivery cost, which makes them a convenient option for anyone keen to start a project straight away without waiting for the post.
Several features stand out:
- Free standard delivery on orders over £35
- Fiver Friday: weekly multi-buy deals offering 2, 3, or 5 selected items for £5
- Sale events running for roughly 85% of the year, with discounts up to 50% off yarn, kits, and patterns
- Newsletter subscribers receive 10% off their first order plus access to a prize wheel
- A regularly updated blog with free patterns, step-by-step tutorials, and project inspiration for all skill levels
Between the near-permanent sale events, weekly Fiver Friday deals, and the codes on this page, there are several ways to keep your yarn stash growing without overspending. Bookmark this page and check back before each order.
How to use
Shopping Guide
When’s the best time to shop at The Knitting Network? Honestly, most of the year — their sale events run for over 85% of the calendar according to tracking data we’ve gathered. That said, the deepest markdowns tend to land around Black Friday and the January sales, when yarn and kit discounts regularly exceed 50%. If your project isn’t urgent, holding out for those windows is a smart move.
How does Fiver Friday work and is it worth it? Every Friday, selected products appear in multi-buy bundles — typically 2, 3, or 5 items for £5. It’s ideal for stocking up on accessories, notions, or yarn you reach for regularly. Check the Fiver Friday page early in the day, though: popular colours and weights sell out quickly, and the selection changes each week.
Can I stack newsletter discounts with sale prices? New newsletter subscribers get 10% off their first order. Whether that discount stacks on top of sale prices isn’t guaranteed — we’ve seen it work on some items but not others. Sign up before your first purchase to lock in the initial saving, then watch your inbox for exclusive subscriber codes that may combine with ongoing promotions.
Is free delivery straightforward to qualify for? Spend £35 or more and standard delivery is free — a low threshold for craft supplies where a single project’s yarn can easily cross it. For smaller orders, a delivery charge applies, so batching your purchases is usually the better approach. Digital pattern downloads carry no delivery charge at all.
What if I only want a pattern, not physical goods? Digital patterns arrive as PDFs by email within 24 hours, with no delivery charge. You can start knitting the same day. Save the file to your device as soon as it arrives — if the email doesn’t show up, check your junk folder before reaching out to The Knitting Network’s support team.
