Crochet has come a long way from its ‘nana-only’ reputation. These days, it’s become a go-to creative outlet for anyone who wants to step back from the ‘busy’, slow down, and make something with their own hands. Whether you’re brand new or just picking up your hook again, there’s something satisfying about turning a ball of yarn into something real.
But getting started can be... a lot. Choosing the right hook size, yarn weight, pattern - suddenly your relaxing new hobby has turned into a research project. Arghhh!
This is where crochet kits come in.
Why crochet kits make it so easy to start your next project
A good crochet kit takes out the guesswork. You get the right tools, the right materials, and a clear plan - all in one place. No standing in the craft aisle debating between hooks, no midnight deep dives googling yarn tension. Just open the kit, make a cuppa (or pour a wine) and start stitching.
At Nana Sport, we’re all about keeping things simple. Our crochet bag kits are designed so you can go from “I’d love to try this” to “Look what I made!” without the overwhelm.
Everything’s included, and our instructions are made for real people. The pattern follows proper crochet format, but don’t worry - our stitch guide and video tutorials walk you through each stitch step by step.
And if you’re a total newbie to crochet, we give you beginner instructions and a practice ball of yarn to get you started!
Why we’re starting with bags
There are so many things out there to crochet - but there’s something extra special about finishing your first project and having it be something you’ll actually use. That’s why we started with bags.
They’re fun to make, practical, and stylish. You’ll learn the same skills you would with a smaller project, but end up with something you can't wait to show off to the world.
More than just a kit
Crochet kits aren’t only about convenience - they’re about the experience.
- Mindfulness: Once your kit arrives, you can dive straight in - finding your rhythm, your focus, and that easy sense of flow as you stitch.
- Creativity: You choose your bag style and colours… without the stress of sourcing every single material.
- Sustainability: Our raffia yarn is 100% paper - lightweight, long-lasting, and good for the planet. A win for you, your wardrobe, and Mother Nature.
- Satisfaction: That moment when someone asks, “Where’d you get that bag?” and you get to drop the ultimate humble brag: “Oh, this? I made it.”
