GBI 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.

GBI can crochet! I have never crocheted before in my life and was able to successfully complete all the kits I’ve tried! Justine’s step-by-step videos are super thorough, easy to understand, AND teach you how to read patterns. I’ve been able to complete several non-Wooble projects just reading a pattern! The Woobles are so cute, I’ve been giving them to my co-workers as lil desk buddies. Cannot recommend these kits highly enough for anyone interested in crocheting!

GBWhere did the negative review go I’ve made dozens of their kits - accessories and full kits. I have left about a dozen five star reviews. I got one kit that didn’t have enough yarn (I crochet tight and never had this issue before). I left a negative review for it. Someone from customer service asked for details including photos of what I did (because apparently I’m not trustworthy). They said sorry and the negative review was never posted. I now don’t trust them. For the amount you get, it is very pricy but I was willing to pay that for learning a skill. Honest reviews are highly important especially for a $40 kit. If you want to try it, I’d recommend the basic beginner kits. Practice with those and then move on from Woobles. It’s unfortunate as I did like the company before that.

GBLeft-handed crafters rejoice! As a lefty, I’ve tried several times to learn (often from righties) how to knit or crochet with no luck. The Woobles kits have changed that! I’m finishing my 2nd Wooble and I can’t wait to start on my next one. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, and the embedded videos are well done. (There are separate videos for left-handed people, not just “do this the opposite way” that can be frustrating to figure out.) It’s nice that the projects are small, so it’s not overwhelming.

GBSuccess is Not for Everyone It looks easy and cute. I've tried several times, pulled the yarn out of sheer frustration, tried to do the tutorials (probably going on twenty+ times), had a 30-minute tutorial, and still can't get past the second step. This product is not for people who cannot spatially configure things. I learned how to ski and skateboard quicker than learning how to crochet. IKEA furniture may be easier to assemble. It's great that others had an easy time but this product is not for everyone. Just warning you.
