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.”

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.

Woobles taught me to crochet! During the pandemic, I was looking for a new hobby and Woobles taught me how to crochet. Seriously. I’ve done a number of the kits, starting with the penguin, and have used what I learned to do other projects. I really like how the kits include everything you need, because when you are starting, all the choices at a craft store can be intimidating.

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.

I 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!
