Supporting Small Businesses

8/30/2023

0 Comments

 
As a small business owner myself, I also try to support other small businesses whenever possible. Below you will find other small companies and individuals who are also working hard to provide quality products, service, and make a living. These are all companies and people that I personally do business with. Their products and service have been exceptional.

Some of the links you’ll find below are affiliate links, which means that if you click on them, I may earn a commission on qualifying sales through these links (at no extra cost to you). They take you to the official sites; I just get credit for bringing the traffic from my website. I have been a customer of these companies since before I started doing affiliate work. This is just a way I can earn a little extra for recommending products I already use. So, if any of these companies interest you, I do appreciate you using my links. Being a small business owner gets to be very expensive, so the income I generate through extra means like this helps immensely. Thank you!

Yarn and Knitting/Crochet Supplies

Being a professional knitter and crocheter, I get asked what yarn and supplies I recommend:

  • ​KnitPicks and their WeCrochet site.
  • Lion Brand
  • Furls

​I have been a KnitPicks customer since 2013 and a Lion Brand customer since 2003. KnitPicks has been around since 2002. Lion has been in business since 1878 and is fifth generation family-owned and operated. I didn’t discover Furls until 2023. I love their wood crochet hooks.
  • Lion offers free crochet and knitting patterns. You can Click Here to visit their free pattern page.
  • ​KnitPicks has free knit/crochet patterns too. You can Click Here to their free pattern page.

I love the variety of natural fibers that Lion Brand offers.
I buy hundreds of skeins of KnitPicks wool yarn for my work. Some colors have been discontinued over the years, so I occasionally have to dye my own to match the wartime colors that I need.

Furls Fiberarts creates beautiful wood crochet hooks, in addition to other supplies.

    This is the blog for my World War Knits website. I knit and crochet items from historical patterns; mostly wartime patterns. The posts I write on my blog will be related to historical knitting and crocheting.
