New tutorials are very clear. The in person workshop helped a lot, Karen was very patient and clear about teaching knitting techniques. The wool has good quality and the overall length is friendly to making mistakes, too. This set is absolutely for absolute beginners, I did it!!
I choose the purple one. The color is so beautiful and standing out! The workshop was full of fun. I spent 6hours at home to finish one beanie as me a brand newbie. Totally in love with knitting and Karen!
I chose the pistachio colour and to recieve needles in the kit as well. I found the instructions and videos very helpful, but the video about the neck collar got a little confusing, however I got there in the end. One of my needles broke (faulty) but a new one was sent out immediately, so great customer service. The vest is lovely, after looking at the pictures online I decided to add 4 extra rows of the stockinette stitch so it was a little longer on my belly (I made size S, I am 168cm tall and approx 60kg) and I am very happy with where it sits. It is very warm and cuddly. I am very glad I purchased a kit that was all inclusive to take out any stress. Definitely do the guage test and if you get different numbers google what to do before starting. Will ensure your sizing is correct.
As a complete beginner, I found the step-by-step video instructions easy to follow and the process to be really rewarding. The wool itself is wonderfully soft and high quality. When I hit a snag, Karen went above and beyond with clear, helpful advice, quickly following up and making sure I was satisfied. Highly recommend, especially for beginners!
