Hi! Coming from someone who learned to crochet with the Woobles, I think I should state something. The Woobles aren't a "Crochet Kit." They are a "LEARN to Crochet Kit." If you know how to crochet Woobles kits are NOT for you. They're expensive for if you know how-$25 (If you don't get the hook) is a lot for a crochet kit, when you could get a very similar one for $10. HOWEVER! If you do not know how to crochet, the Woobles is how you do it. It has everything you need, plus videos for eye-learning. They teach you how to read crochet-lingo too, which not a lot of kits too, and also it does have leftie tutorials! Literally all you need is scissors. Also, the yarn that they have is amazing-it's literally the best for beginners, which is worth at least $15 of the price. Also, coming from a crocheter, they give you the best kind of hook possible. I love the woobles, but in no way should you get their projects if you already know how to crocheter (Unless it's their intermediate kits because those are actually good if you already know how because they teach you more advanced stitches and other stuff.)

As an adult I tried again and learned that I crochet right handed. I’ve also taken a large gap of not crocheting for awhile and then had to take time to figure it out again 😅.

It is a bit expensive for what you get. However I did like them for the convenience. When I was planning for a trip and debating on what yarn to pack for projects to work on the trip (I'm a dollmaker and can become indecisive really quickly) I ended up buying a woobles bundle that was discounted and I got a free tin for notions included. It was nice to have for the trip since it was a small project I could work during my down time and not have to worry about if I didn't pack the right materials or lose inspiration because my indecisive nature telling me I should of packed up a different project instead. Plus the bag the woobles come in are great for packing purposes! I honestly loved the yarn and you can buy their yarn separately (and I've found knock off brands of that same yarn) but again the balls of yarn run a little pricey so I haven't bought those yet but waiting for those to be on sale as well since it was a good yarn to work with.

I love to crochet and I mainly make amigurumi so I've been intrigued by these Woobles. They are far too expensive for my liking, though. I get why the price is so high and I don't think it's because of the videos. I think the high price is mainly because you have a start for your first part. On the one hand it's nice to have, on the other it feels like a bit of a waste. You're not making your amigurumi in one piece, so you need to learn how to do a magic ring anyway (or another way of starting). They look adorable, but not for that price. Your first amigurumi looks amazing, though! (Better than my first one)

It's so funny that you posted this, because I was looking for some thing to watch while I made the coffee cup Wooble for my boyfriend! I had the same issue with the videos you did. I started with the lion because I've never crocheted before, and didn't want to mess the coffee cup up. For his snouts, I decided to use the magic loop tutorial instead of the chain loop. Issue being, it never told me how many stitches I needed in the magic loop for his snouts. Not even in the chain loop tutorial. I had to go forward to where she was sewing them on to count how many stitches she had. So it definitely seems to me that things can fall through the cracks with their video system, but I'm still very impressed by it all. I would recommend them to friends!

I’m a beginner crocheter. I’ve made doll blankets, doll scarves, a little pumpkin, and wreath ornaments. I’m cross-dominant so while I write, sew, bat, and putt left handed, I also do a lot of things right-handed, including crochet and knitting. As a kid, I tried to learn crochet from my great aunt, and I think I tried to do it left-handed but didn’t get anywhere. Then as an adult, I figured out I’m a righty at crochet. If I take a long gap from crocheting or knitting, I sometimes forget which hand to hold everything in. Of course I also didn’t realize as a kid that I was cross-dominant and teachers always gave me left-handed scissors and thought I was left-handed for pretty much everything. It made some things tricky to learn or figure out. Thus, I can relate to lefties on some things but not everything…and being cross-dominant can come with its own set of challenges.

I'm so happy how your Pierre came out it looks adorable! I started crocheting in the middle of last year and already have a good enough grasp on it that I don't feel the need to start with something like the Woobles but I got one for a friend. Also, the reason that the colors changed with some of the videos might have to do with how visible the yarn is fro the instructions. I personally don't have any opinions with how the videos are not the same color or anything because I learned from just searching on KZbin and experimenting until I got it right, and plushies like those are something I don't enjoy making purely because of how much counting there is. I enjoy things like clothing where i can play with stitches and implement my knowledge instead of just following a tutorial all the way through.

It is good that there are now resources for lefties to learn things with their dominant hand. I have to say though that there are benefits when you have the tool with your right hand when you are leftie. I was taught to knit (continental style) and crochet with my right hand and I'm actually happy about it from two reasons. I'm also dyslexic and trying to turn the right handed patterns to left when you have to work already understanding the whole thing would just make the whole thing too much work. But the other is that now I control the yarn with my left hand and that makes a big difference with stitch quality. You get your stitches a lot more even a lot faster because you control it with your dominant hand that has better coordination. I have found this to be true in crochet, knitting and even in weaving.

EDIT: Also wanted to add, I'm actually an expert-level crocheter, and I regularly make complicated amigurumi (that's the term for stuffed animals, basically), so I have to say, watching someone who isn't as experienced as me learning how to do it actually brought a smile to my face. Reminds me of when I was learning and I could only make really simple patterns like chicks and octopus. It's hard now, but it gets easier the longer you do it. Also I really want their dinosaur kit. I love dinosaurs!

Woobles is what got me started into crocheting. Now I make sweaters, blankets, scarves, and, of course, amigurumi.

I’ve been crocheting for like 15 years and I think Pierre turned out great. Woobles can been a good start to learn to crochet.

For someone that didn't realy know crochet e for your first "amigurumi", it's amazing job! Here in Brazil we have some kits like this and I love them for beguiners.

YES I love making art and crochet! Thank you Chloe for making this video! Love this new direction of the channel! Also, as a right-handed person, I never really have realized how difficult it must be for left handed crochet beginners and really appreciate Wooble for giving left-handed tutorials!

As a crochet designer myself who's been teaching on KZbin for over a decade now this was really interesting to watch. I've not heard of this company, but very cute simple characters. That said, sadly I feel this kit is overpriced and the yarn by the looks of it is just a t-shirt yarn, so you could easily buy these items elsewhere and learn for free online, but! there's always something fun about getting a kit, having it all in one place so there's a lot to be said for that. You did an amazing job!

Oh and left handed tutorials are just right handed tutorials flipped, they're not usually separately filmed.
@Kessik811 ай бұрын
No way, I watched your Videos when I was a Teen to improve my palette. Glad to see you are still crocheting on KZbin :) (That was 10 years ago) I also think the Kits are overpriced , but maybe one is a nice starting point if you are intimidated by picking up a new hobby?
@HappyBerryCrochet11 ай бұрын
That's amazing! Yes it's been a long time now 😄 Yes I think it's a good starting point, the design seems very simple and it's cute, the yarn is nice, but yes overpriced I think

I'm so glad they have left-handed videos. I'm left handed like you and was planning to watch this and ask how you were able to do it. Now I don't have to. I have wanted to try these. Thank you.

That's how I learned to crochet I through actually making a crochet piece and following along. So these stuff animals are simple math equations, really. Small butt, big body (increase) small head (decrease) do that with any animal and it turns out great everytime. Just the nicest way to learn!

LOVE that you did crochet! Saw these kits advertised and wondered how a beginner would really feel about them. I was so happy for you! First, you did fantastic, and second, it is SO satisfying to watch a piece appear as you work it, and I was so happy to watch you enjoy that satisfaction as you made that cute penguin! When I was learning, I found the Magic Ring tutorial from HookedByRobin REALLY helpful. Also, if you really enjoy the crochet experience, there are some great doggie sweater tutorials out there that are simpler than you might think. I bet your pup would love you to make one.

The lil plastic tags are usually called stitch counters - if you get into more involved projects, it definitely pays to invest in ones you like working with. Also I believe woobles use a chord instead of "yarn" yarn - while you probably can't get the specific type they make without buying from them, you can probably find a substitute buy looking up a cotton core chord or something similar - it makes for good pencil case material, and you can find free tutorials for really cute ones all over KZbin! I hope you continue to have a fun crochet journey ~

The name "Wooble" is close enough to "Weepul" that it made me think of that product. When I was in middle school, the school had us students sell magazine subscriptions for prizes (yes, it's weird, no I don't know why they did this), and these prizes were centered around "Weepuls", which were little puff balls stuck onto paper feet and with eyes, hands, and accessories stuck onto them. Weepuls were the base prizes (except the coveted giant one) among other more understandably desirable things. As shady as the whole process was (why get CHILDREN to sell magazine subscriptions, and what were we supposed to do, go door to door? That's even worse), I have nostalgia for the Weepuls.
@elizabethwesala148011 ай бұрын
I really like the yarn, I tend to crochet tight and regular yarn always splits up on me and I have to back out and redo a lot. Wobble yarn won’t do that so it is easier when learning.

I taught myself how to crochet from watching youtube videos (albeit, I was already an experience knitter). But I love that the Woobles kit has an ergonomic crochet hook! Definitely wished I bought a set of those instead of regular ones.

@nynex411 ай бұрын
you did a great job as a beginner crocheter, You'll find that after a few projects, your hands get used to holding the hook/project better and it's not as awkward. Then the tension in the stitches get more uniform. Just takes some practice. I still have my first projects around and I can look back at them and see the progress i've made.
