You too can make cute things! I was taught to crochet rag rugs by my gramma growing up but I had no idea how to read a pattern or really make anything that didn’t look weird. I started with Pierre the penguin and blasted through a total of 13 beginner, beginner+, and intermediate critters before finally feeling like I had a good enough grasp to branch out and try new things. I am loving being able to read patterns and make new things!

In theory this is fun and accessible In theory this is fun and accessible. In practice it’s a bit different. I crocheted with my grandma as a kid so I have a foundational knowledge, however, these kits, although packaged adorable, are much less accessible even to me. My daughter laughed at the final result, it didn’t look like the photo on the package! Overall, not relaxing, stressful, takes about 8-10 hours for one “Wooble.”

Best way to learn to crochet I’m so grateful for the Woobles for helping me teach myself how to crochet last year. It has become a life-saving hobby, and a very important comfort to me. The first thing I ever crocheted was the beginner+ kit of Sebastian the Lion. Even though it was slightly more advanced, the instructions and videos were very clear and helpful every step along the way. Every part of it was so easy and I felt so accomplished after my first project, and encouraged to learn more. My only trouble at the beginning was whenever the yarn would split, so I’m super stoked to see that they’ve began making their own yarn that won’t have the same problem. I always recommend the Woobles to anyone who says they want to learn how to crochet. :)

I got my first woobles crochet kit for… I got my first woobles crochet kit for Fred the dinosaur. While going through the directions they never use the animal i was making. This made it confusing when i had to connect the tail onto it because my piece was significantly different than the piece they were showing. The directions aren’t the best. It’s extremely frustrating, and it shouldn’t be for a beginners kit. They are also way too expensive for it to be this confusing. This kit says it takes 3-8 hours to complete. I’ve been working on it for months.

False advertising The woobles is a great, in theory experience. I have autism, adhd, and dyslexia. I am an outlier. However I trust advertising. Their platform said their items were ptestarted in photos paired with the item sold. Wrong. They were never prestarted. This may feel small to some but for me with disabilities the false advertising has affected me greatly. I contacted them and after a few d changes they just stopped responding
