Why Buy Our Crochet Kits?
Our crochet kits are perfect for beginners who want to create adorable amigurumi dolls. Wondering why they’re so beginner-friendly? Let me tell you:
Beginner-friendly yarn:
Our Easter Bunny crochet kit includes Tube Yarn, which doesn't split or fray like other types of yarn. As a beginner, you might not have experience with different kinds of yarn, and using yarn that splits and frays can be frustrating enough to make you want to give up on crocheting altogether. With our Tube Yarn, you won’t face these problems. Instead, you’ll enjoy a smoother, more enjoyable learning experience. What's more, the stitches in Tube Yarn are also clearly visible, making it easier for you to follow along and see your progress.
Pre-started Magic Circle:
The magic circle can be one of the most challenging techniques for beginners to master, and unfortunately, it’s often the starting point for many amigurumi projects. But fear not—we’ve started the magic circle for you! This way, you can jump straight to the fun part of crocheting without the initial struggle. There will be plenty of opportunities to learn how to make the magic circle later on, but for now, let’s focus on getting you started smoothly.
In case you want to master the magic circle, this video shows a simple method to create it
