About House of Knit

House of Knit, DROPS yarn and circular needles for knitting

House of Knit is an online store with a British domain that began operating in 2023. Its catalog focuses on selling yarn from the DROPS brand and knitting accessories, and the company itself presents itself as a project born from an interest in knitting. The website runs on the Shopify platform and displays prices in pounds sterling (GBP).

Among the references listed in the catalog are DROPS Sky, DROPS Air, DROPS Kid-Silk, DROPS Soft Tweed, DROPS Merino Extra Fine, DROPS Baby Merino, DROPS Alpaca, and Drops Puna.

Circular needles

In addition to yarns, the store sells circular needles from the Drops Pro Brass line, available in 40 cm and 80 cm lengths and in sizes 3 to 7 mm. These items are listed at £1.00, reduced from £2.75.

Patterns and inspirational content

The site includes a mitten pattern called Snuggle-up mittens, described as a simple design intended for the whole family. It also publishes a tips and inspiration section with articles about knitwear designers, such as Le Knit, My Favourite Things, and PetiteKnit, the latter linked to Denmark. Other themed posts cover wool care, Kid-Silk combinations, knitting needle size conversion, and felting.
