Bought this for my 12 year old niece. She loved it but was more difficult than expected. This arrived later than expected.A little disappointed with the yarn, or yarn-like product. I wanted to teach my 11 yr. Old to knit and every time we started with the "casting on" step, the yarn was extremely tight and hard to work with. We tried several times and gave up.I got this for my daughter's xmas present. She wish this product so bad. She is 8 years old and when she tried to do it, it was a bit difficult for her. Although it is difficult she still willing to do it and so happy.Hope soon she will make some thing with this and do her multiple project. Thank you!This was one of the best finds ever on Amazon! My daughter really wanted knitting and crocheting toys for her birthday, and this really was perfect for her- especially for the price! Comes with everything you need in the instructions are really easy to read. She loves it!Have not opened yet. A good present for young girlA fun kit, but the yarns seams to separate too easily.Yarn sheds and falls apart. Not good for little kids that are learning.not actually enough yarn to do projects picturedDelighted with my efforts .Followed instructions for the scarf ,using all of the wool ,blocks of colour not stripes .Used instructions for Pom Pom with ends of wool left over .Enough to make a flat Pom Pom ,which looks like a flower Stitched that on to end of violet colour which was the first colour used on the scarf . Pom Pom flower is central at end of scarf ,not hanging over edge of scarf .Hope to buy another kit in a month or so .Thank you .Suitable for litte ones who have already been shown the basics as the wool is not that easy to pick up. Knitting needles are a little thin.My granddaughter loved this and instructions were easy for her to follow.Great set. Wool colours are fab really bright. Needles are perfect size for kids. The only down side is for a STARTER set the fuzzy wool is a little difficult to learn to knit with. But for a more advanced knitter this is a great gift. My 11 year old loved it.Fun present.
