INSCRAFT 62 Acrylic Yarn Skeins, 2170 Yards Yarn for Knitting and Crochet, Includes 2 Crochet Hooks,2 Weaving Needles,10 Stitch Markers, Perfect Beginner Kit for for Adults Kids

I adore this set of yarn; the variety of colors is amazing, and the yarns are soft and strong, with a very subtle sheen that isn't as bright as Caron Simply Soft, but not so dull that it appears fuzzy or rough. I appreciate that some of the colors come in hues which are part of a gradient (example in picture), which is very difficult to find when looking for acrylic yarns. As for negatives, the yarns are all thinner than advertised: I would say they're more accurately between 2 and 3 on the weight scale. I can still use them, but I was hoping they'd be a tiny bit thicker. The tote the set comes in is disappointing, but not a huge deal (unless you were relying on it to store these skeins): it opens by zipper around the middle of the bag... it's not terrible, but there's no way you could reasonably store all the skeins of yarn and tools in there and be able to access the ones you need without risking tangling the yarn, or worse, things falling out and being lost. The hooks are standard aluminum hooks with no grip. Not terrible, but I have better ones. They are also way too large for the yarn... I already put them away, but I believe one was 4 mm and the other was 5.5 mm. I typically use a 3.5 mm hook or smaller, and it was a bit larger than it needed to be for these yarns. The large-eyed yarn needles are also unsuitable for this yarn. I do like the stitch markers included, though: they're very useful. Overall, I love the set and colors, but I wouldn't say it's for beginners. The skeins are too small and the yarn is too thin to really be able to practice with, and it's not cost effective at all. It would be better suited for an experienced crochet artist who is looking for a large variety of colors to use in amigurumi work.

What a great beginner kit. So many brilliant colors! And they are in a nice carry case that protects everything from the light so even if they sit for a while they won’t get faded and old looking.

When I brought my dolls to my office, the brown yarn appeared green. I falsely concluded that the yarn must’ve degraded color. However, I didn’t realize that my office had fluorescent lights that can make brown color appear green. So, I here updating my review to share what a positive experience I had using the yarn. I appreciate the small skeins with a very good variety of vibrant colors. It was perfect for this project. Would definitely buy again.

Starting with the great: the color assortment can't be beat. I'm working on a bunch of mini birds that require a number of gradients, and this worked out perfectly to see what I'll eventually need more of. With all the worries of size, I was pleasantly surprised. For the price and varieties offered, they're perfect. It's a beginner set after all. When you squish them, they hold their own (so no air inflating their size). The blue jay I just finished I could easily make five or six more of, at least. For context, it fits in the palm of my hand, about two inches tall and wide. (That's just using the three blues, let alone all the other colors.) The stitch markers are plentiful and I've been using them a lot. They're not so rigid that you can't easily open them, but not so loose that they risk falling out as you crochet. The two provided hooks are the same exact ones I bought when I first started, and I haven't had a single issue with them. The one thing that drops this down a star is the quality variety between skeins. The first skein I worked with I was unraveling and re-crocheting a whole bunch with and it stayed perfectly in tact. I was ecstatic! On my blue jay, one of the skeins started to fray quite a bit. I ended up having to cut about three inches of yarn off because it was unusable. (It was fluffed up, not just unraveled.) The gold I used for the bismark whistler, though, was a champ. Perfect! It's something to keep in mind, but hasn't ruined any of the projects I've worked on. To end on a more positive note: the yarn is fairly soft for an acrylic and my final projects have held up very well. It's a bulk buy at a very good price, with lot's of variety. The supplies included are great to start, and I'll be using those stitch markers for years to come. (As long as I don't lose them!) A little fray here and there is more than worth it to me.

I loved the yarn after I got used with it and found the right size hook. It is tedious at times because it splits and some of the balls have knots, but overall I was able to crochet some cool things with so many beautiful colors. Yes, the balls are small - but a decent size is you're doing amigurumi or granny squares, and supplement for the main color with yarn from the store. The needles broke fast and I did not care for the hook that comes with the kit, but I am still using the markers. Not sure if I'd recommend this for complete beginners...It's thick enough to make it easy, but it's splitting at times and it's slippery. I think there is a learning curve with any yarn and tools.

Don’t buy it for the bag!!! When I got it I immediately opened it only to find that the bag was not as the picture looked. It was more cheaply made and one of the seams that stop the zippers from falling out was snapped and falling apart. The yarn and other tools were fun and great for a beginner level. The yarn is soft and quality made, and the pins/needles are 8+ safe. Definitely something I would recommend if they plan to get a better storage bag

It was given as a gift and she loved it

Honestly a great starter sample set.

Gute Ware, schnelle Lieferung.

Knits up well on a.3.25 knitting needles. Use this yarn for making Comfort/Izzy dolls for donations to children in crisis. Yarn colors are bright and colorful and children love them. I use to buy from temu but the price of this kit was cheaper on Amazon and received within 2 days.

Highly recommend, yarn very good, includes everything you need, and affordable, many thanks

ESTUCHE MUY PEQUEÑO

Is actually small to the picture and yes I didn't read the reviews on this product so it is only small to the picture
