Hilo Shawl Kit

I liked the wool, it is nice quality. Not so much the wooden needle. And the instruction is a desaster, it is way too complicated for beginners in my opinion. I addition, it is too expensive as a kit.

Lovely fine yarn, nice colours. Easy to knit, good quality needles.

I really wanted to love this, however I am a total novice to crochet therefore I do not know how to do anything! I am a visual learner so the written instructions are no help to me. It's vocabulary and technics that are completely foreign to me. They have video tutorials online, but those still didn't help. I wish there was video directions on how to make each product. That would help all of us novices who don't have someone to sit down next to them and physically teach them. I really love the idea of this company though. Maybe I'll try knitting instead of crocheting?

So lovely after making one for a present I’m now making one for me!

Dies ist mein erstes Projekt. Die Anleitung war leicht zu verstehen, die Stricknadeln liegen gut in der Hand. Dass ich den Schal schon zwei Mal wieder aufgerollt habe, liegt an mir, nicht am Material ;). Durch die unterschiedliche Fadenstärke verzeiht der Schal so manchen Anfängerfähler (Unterschiedliche Fadenspannung, Maschen verloren). Es sieht trotzdem so aus wie gewollt. Ich würde ihn wieder kaufen
