Perhaps it's not a basic beginner's kit. It takes a bit of skill to know how to assemble it. My daughter assembled it in a couple days and it looks nice.

The yarn is thin, small needle, but you can be work with it!

I bought this kit to make as a gift for a family member in the hospital, and for my purposes it worked out well. However, while each individual element isn't complicated, it all adds up to a project that would be extremely challenging for someone brand-new to crochet. I would recommend waiting to start this project until you are comfortable with basic stitches and can easily identify their anatomy.PRO:* For almost every material—with the notable exception of green yarn—a lot more was included than the finished pot of flowers ended up using.* The video walkthrough of the project was extremely helpful (and, indeed, some sections would have been nearly impossible to complete without it).* I'm happy with how the finished pot of flowers turned out. I think it looks cute and cheerful, and I'm glad I can gift something handmade without having to hunt down a bunch of little bits of different colored yarn myself.CON:* You're not given a gauge or expected dimensions for anything, which is a real problem when you're working off a kit that has a fixed amount of materials. I got almost all the way through crocheting the pot before realizing my tension was way too tight, and I had to frog it and start over.* This is literally the splittiest yarn I've ever worked with. I have no idea how many stitches I had to rip out or attempt multiple times because my hook missed a strand.* There almost wasn't enough green yarn for me to finish; after wrapping the last flower, I came away with just ~35cm (about a foot). If I'd been cutting the stem-wrapping bits to a full meter as suggested, I would have definitely run out. I likely also would have run out if using a 2.5mm hook as suggested by the instructions (I used my own 2.25mm hook for the entire project.) This seems to be a common complaint, so I would suggest that the manufacturer reexamine how much green yarn is being included, because something is very off.* Some of the instructions are written in confusing ways, though this is mitigated by the videos. The addition of a stitch diagram would have been useful.* While the video for the leaves is complete, the written instructions are not, and they also differ slightly at the very end.* The wire for the leaves is uncut, and there are no instructions about how long each piece of wire should be.* There are no clear directions for how much to stuff the pot.* The finished pot would greatly benefit from a heavy weight in the bottom to make it more stable. Stuffing it enough that it felt firm also rounded out the bottom, leaving it a little precarious.

I bought this as a gift for a friend who likes sunflowers and doing crafty things. She loved it and made it right away. The kit contents were all there, easy to put together. The color and design were nice. It was a good value for the money I spent on it.

I lowered my rating from 3 stars to 1 star. One of the yarn colors was so frayed that it was completely unusable. Amazon said they would send me a replacement kit at no charge so I could have the color. I have now been charged for the replacement kit and I still haven't been able to complete the kit. The hooks are very small for a beginner and the yarn is very cheaply made. There are better kits out there for learning and, while pricier, have a much better quality product.Original review: I have been a knitter for 35 years and recently took up crochet. This is not something a true beginner, such as myself, can follow. You need more than a basic understanding of stitches and how to read a pattern. The videos, while helpful, are interrupted by the usual YouTube advertisements if you don't have a premium account. I would expect that when I pay for something the videos would also be ad-free.Lastly, while it is a complete kit, the yarn is very low end. It separates easily and is quite difficult to use without overworking it.I would say if you are an intermediate to advanced crocheter, this is worth buying just for the very cute pattern but I would suggest upgrading the yarn.I will update this review once I am able to complete the project.

Do you love using a small crochet hook? Do you love yarn that is super stringy? Do you love weaving ends in? If you said yes to any of these questions, then this is the kit for you!In all honesty, the final product turned out well but my patience was worn thin with the stringy yarn and small hook, plus having to weave in so many ends. Wasn’t too hard and did have to google how to do one stitch but other than that, not overly terrible. My fingers are quite sore after handling the wire. Also the written pattern differed from the video tutorial and the videos were correct (leaves).

It looks like everything is here and ready to start making the kit.

I was hoping when buying this it would be nice to make for no there day but it’s smaller than expected and the yarn that is included really sucks. It frays way to easy and bad. It has nice instructions but do not use the yarn😪😪
