I've never been a crafty person, but.... I've never been a crafty person. I've tried knitting once, but I have small hands for my age and I could never hold the needle right. I kept getting ads for Woobles on my Facebook and Instagram and I saw how cute the penguin was and knew I had to atleast try it. It took me a couple weeks of doing a round or 2, stopping for a while and picking it back up before I finished the first project. It wasn't too easy, but it wasn't hard since there were video tutorials on how to do each part. Now, almost a year later I crochet almost every day and I spend arguably too much on yarn to make stuff with :-D. I don't regret it, and if you're looking for a new hobby, picking up a kit might work well for you.

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. :)

Left-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.

No way to contact company Extremely disappointed in lack of customer service. No phone number, no live chat to use. Emails don’t get answered and texts (their preferred method for help) go unanswered as well I ordered Christmas presents on Nov 15 and have not gotten any items, nor a response from reaching out last week.

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!
