The book is not really for true beginners. I ended up watching you tube videos in order to learn.

Noticed there are extra items listed in the books such as the pin cover, measure tool, stitch holder are not coming along with the package. Lack of a bit sincerity and honesty.

This won't be a long review because others have gotten into much more detail. I just wanted to say that (unlike a few people have said) I did receive the full kit that is shown in the photo, not just the book.The book/photos in the book are hard to understand (at least I think so) for a beginner. I'm not completely new to the hobby, as I loom knit occasionally and they are similar. I've also tried to crochet in the past, so I'm familiar with some of the things needed to be done. I found the way even something like the slip knot, hard to understand while reading/looking through the book.I like that the kit came with two sets of needles, in two of the most common/used sizes. This is great for those wanting to "test" or "try out" the art of knitting without spending a lot of money..

Nice kit for learning how to knit. I bought this for my 13 year old since she had been hounding me to learn. I like how it included almost everything that was needed.

my son wants to learn to knit, this should do it, if he changes his mind I may take it up again and learn to do it correctly. A hobby for retirement, if I vere retire. thanks

Before I start, please don't bother commenting that I should have read the description more closely. Maybe I should have. But I'm a distracted mom of a three-year-old and twin almost-two-year-olds and I didn't, so imagine our disappointment when I sat down with my daughter to look this over and start a project, got everything out, and realized it does not include any yarn."This kit contains the essentials you need to get you started knitting"It seems to me that yarn would be one of those essentials.I'm only marking it down to 3 stars because it doesn't *claim* to contain yarn, but, even my husband thought it was silly to make a beginner's knitting kit and not include yarn.So, fellow distracted people-- take note: NO YARN.Update: August - I have since purchased the Klutz learn to knit kit and am much happier with it. It not only included yarn (very pretty yarn, too), but the instructions are simpler for a beginner and let you jump right in. If you get easily frustrated learning something new, or this is for a younger person (under 20), I'd definitely get the Klutz book instead. Further Update (September) - I have completed the first Klutz project and am looking for something harder, so I went to this book. I still find the instructions confusing, the language very jargon-y, and the skill levels overestimated. It goes from a simple garter stitch pillow to the lacy baby blanket (beginner, to easy). Maybe the blanket is easier than it looks. I'll continue to report back. It may be easier if you have someone helping you learn, but if you're totally on your own learning from scratch, I still do not recommend this book.Further Update (December) - Started baby blanket on September 11. Still have not finished. As promised, it's not entirely as hard as it looks, but knitting that many stitches and that many rows for a beginner takes a looooooooong time. I'm about halfway through, and completed two baby hats and almost finished a scarf in the meantime. I reiterate that if you are trying to learn completely solo self-taught, this book is not the best to start on. For $13 and change, though, it's not a bad deal just for the needles and other accessories it comes with. Major oversight not including a crochet hook.

Seller is great getting items to you in a hurry. Thanks for that. I am learning that's for sure, I just think I'm to hard on myself. That's the best reason ever, in getting this. Don't be hard on yourself, it just makes matters worse. Enjoy yourself and pick this up, to have around.
