I am halfway through my first fried egg jumper and am in love with it! The colour choices are gorgeous and the chunky wool is so fast to knit up and so soft. I haven't knit much but have done a fair bit of crochet. The videos are extremely helpful and how I learn best so thank you for taking time to make them! I am also so happy to learn new stitches and techniques. This would also be amazing as a crafty gift. Can't wait for winter again to wear it
I get easily frustrated by knitting and have never completed a project. However, the clear instructuons and the high quality wool and needles have made making the cardigan a pleasure - even when I need to go back a few rows and fix something.! Would happily recommend this project for a beginner.
Beautiful kit. Lovely wool. Unfortunately not enough wool for project,however this was quickly remedied the lovely people at Knitato without fuss,hence 5 stars
This is the first time I've made a knit and I think it turned out beautifully! I really loved making the cute Wabi Sabi design and I learned so many techniques in the process. I've already ordered some more yarn from Knitato to make another one as a gift for my mum.
very happy with my purchase, very helpful and gave me a knitting bag which i adore!! thank you so much!
Can't wait to start knitting my beanie!! Sooo cute. The colours are perfect & just as described. I'll be sending these kits to all my friends for their birthday this year!! :) <3
Im pretty new to knitting but this was easy! I made a snood with the second color :)
I wanted to share my experience for a more balanced view. I purchased this kit, along with several others, expecting it to be suitable for an absolute beginner, but it turned out to be a great challenge. While Knitaro was very responsive and a great help, I found the main instructional playlist focused more on the 'how-to' rather than 'how-to-fix' aspects, and as a beginner, I make a lot of mistakes. The yarn, although truly beautiful and fluffy, is fragile and difficult for a beginner to handle. It's prone to breaking, which means I not only have to follow the instructions closely but also be mindful of the yarn's delicacy. Too loose and the project fails, too tight and the yarn breaks. And the yarn's inconsistent thickness just added more stress. Some parts seem so stressed out thin that it looks like it can break at any point (spoiler: It did several times). Also, be prepared for a lot of fur shedding during your practice. My advice for those who usually buy in bulk like myself, is to start with just 1 kit to see how it goes. I now find myself with 2 unused kits and a lot of yarn scattered around my room lol
Was the perfect beginner piece as it's quick to knit up once you get the hang of it and you have something amazing to show even if you are such a tight knitter you technically do it a bit small like I did lol. Once I'm better at knitting I want to get the same kit again to really see how much I've improved and loosened up!
Am disappointed that the quantity of a particular colour I ordered wasn’t available even though the website stated it was
I had a great time making this jumper. The wool quality is great and super soft and I even had about half a ball of each colour left over afterwards. This is a really great way to get used to knitting intarsia also. I chose light and dark purple and it looks great!
Never in a million years did I think I could make something this beautiful (I'd only ever made a scarf previously!). I learnt so much through making this though and the videos were incredibly helpful! It was challenging but not too much thanks to all the support. So stoked with the final result and can't wait to show it off!
Karen is so helpful. She contacted me right away to let me know that the original yarn I selected was out of stock (I didn't read properly woops).
She offered a full refund or exchange, and recommended alternate colours.
I haven't started the project but the service, quality of yarn and instructions/resources provided in the kit are 5 star. Can't wait to get started.
I haven't knit in years and if I were to knit, I only knitted a scarf. This was my first time making a cardigan. I enjoyed the process and Karen was very attentive to my needs on Instagram if I need any help. I finally finished, I couldn't be prouder of myself and it was very enjoyable. Definitely going to continue this!
The beanie box was perfect with all that’s needed. The customer service was excellent and responsive to all my questions big and small! Came together really well, can’t wait to make the second beanie!
Love these circular needles! They are hard to find in 12mm size, will buy more!
FABULOUS….the instructions were clear and easy to follow. I just love my new very warm cardigan!!!
This is the third jumper I have made with a knitato kit, each one with a different yarn. They have all been really soft, high quality yarns at a great price. I’m reluctant to buy yarn from anywhere else now! And the kits make it easy and fun, taking the guesswork out of yarn/ pattern matching.
I had a great time making this and am really happy with how it turned out! I found the pattern really easy to follow.
Absolutely love it. Was so easy to make with the tutorial videos and the wool is so soft it’s like butter. Did run out of wool though just before the final pocket so would recommend buying an extra skein just in case. If you don’t need it you will definitely find another use.

Wool purchased was exactly what was on web site - Arrived swiftly and is just beautiful.
I've only just started learning the basics of knitting, but I'm already hooked! I can tell in going to love creating ny cardi, and I'm so excited to learn a new skill for life.
