K-Zip Knits began in early 2016 and has gradually evolved into a full time business run by husband and wife team, Chris and Kelsey. As a small batch yarn company, based in Summerland BC, they are always looking for ways to bring a little bit of colour to your day, rain, snow, or shine! Their colourways are often inspired by a photo, theme or experience which are as varied and beautiful as the world around us. They don’t use harsh chemicals in the dye processes and strive to bring you a luxury product at an affordable price.
K-Zip Knits' Garibaldi Sock base is a work horse! Sturdy and hard wearing for socks but soft enough for even the fussiest of wool wearers. The stitch definition on this yarn is out of this world and knits beautifully on even a 5 mm needle for a drapey shawl or top!
