CraftLabKnitting Kit for Beginners, Kids Adults Seniors Includes All Knitting Supplies: Wool Yarn, Knitting Needles, Yarn Needle and Instructions – Fantastic DIY Gift Learn to Knit Arts & Crafts Kit

This kit is well thought out and perfect for that beginning child or adult. The presentation is perfect for gifting - bright and cheerful, too. I liked that this kit uses a pretty color wool as a teaching fiber, as that is a better fiber to learn on in my opinion and what I learned on. The bamboo needles are basic but they get you started and allow the right size stitch for learning. That's important. The printed instructions are very good but the video link is excellent and user friendly. (We all love a great video and teacher for presenting new skills.) Rudimentary techniques are carefully taught and it would be hard not to understand the concept(s) they are teaching. Not overwhelming for a novice - just enough. This kit will definitely get you started knitting and build confidence so you can grow and explore how wonderful the knitting world can be...on to shawls, hats, and simple garments for all your friends. Great creative looping fun linking us back to other humans sometime between 500 AD and the 12th century when it all began. My friend's daughter will enjoy this kit and perhaps teach her friends - another knitting circle begins.

Great purchase to get me back to knitting. Easy & affordable

good

My biggest complaint here is one of the projects is a stuffed bunny with black eyes. There is no stuffing or black yarn for that project. I thought maybe I overlooked this in the description. Nope. No mention that parts of one project will not be included.Also, the yarn is very cheap and unwinds too easily. Which, for a beginner, was a pain. I didn't want to by more supplies until i was sure this was a hobby I wanted, but I had to buy better yarn!Now, the pros are a very well thought put guide book. I wasn't annoyed by the online videos and they were helpful. The bamboo needles are comfortable in my hands

This is a great little kit I bought for myself as a Christmas gift, since I wanted to learn to knit. The first project was a bunny - I thought, it looks hard and why do I need one anyway - BUT - it was actually really easy and everyone loves it! I used some cotton balls to stuff it, but you could use the yarn from the kit if you prefer. I can now see how easy it will be to do the second project, based on what I did here. So it's very encouraging! There's plenty of yarn in the package, instruction book, online videos - everything I need. (I did add some of my own green yarn for the eyes.) The needles are a lightweight wood, which is so much better for beginners than the metal ones, which can be too slippery. Sure, the photos in the booklet could be better, but the free online videos they provide are very detailed and very clear. This is a great kit!

I started a knitting club for young teenagers who wanted to learn how to knit. As an experienced knitter for more than 45 years, I was able to create beginning knitting kits for underr $6.00 and I had more projects in my own written instructions. These boxes were a disappointment. I was surprised that it was sold by Amazon. C. Stock

Great kit. Easy to follow instructions but it also comes with a link to videos you can watch for more help. Step by step guides for 3 very different types of projects. Perfect kit for someone starting to learn to knit.

I really wanted to like this kit and really wanted my very first knitting experience to be good, BUT.... I found the booklet hard to follow (watch youtube instead), the needles were the wrong size for the cheap yarn provided. yarn isn't marked but I did a wrap to figure it out. It's 3 fine and splits. The needle is 6mm when you should use a 4mm. Both are WAAAAYYYY to small for a beginner. I'm a REAL BEGINNER. I had a much better expertise with bulky quality yarn and 10mm needles. No beginner or child could learn with this kit.DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!I recommend buying your own bulky yarn, needles (10mm), and watch some videos, instead.
