This review is from : Alex Chunky and Funky Scarf Beginner's Knitting Kit in Box
Great first experience for knitting . I bought this for my 6 year old daughter and it was a good way for her to learn how to knit. The very chunky pink yarn and the huge needles were perfectly sized for little hands. I must say that our success with this product was due in large part to the youtube video from AlexToys explaining visually how to cast on and knit. The video was excellent and my daughter knitted her scarf in no time. (I also learned how to knit from the video!) Her friends are now interested in making the same scarf. If you have a son who doesn't like the bright pink color, you can always buy any super bulky yarn and very large needles and then just watch the video.

kit is great but product colors sent not as advertised by amazon . kit was advertised as multi color yarn( blues, reds, yellows etc) . I ordered it for my 6 year old son. the kit came with pink yarn. I was not happy about this, as he wants to learn to knit and I know he would prefer a mulit color hat and scarf vs. a hot pink one.

Beginner's knitting kit . We found a Youtube video explaining how to knit from Alex company. It was helpful --but also found other online videos to help too.
Great gift . I am giving this to my granddaughter for Christmas, she is interested in knitting as she watches me knitting all the time.
Alex Chunky and Funky Scarf Beginner's Knitting Kit in Box Opinions
good way to learn the basics . Easy to follow steps in the instruction. My daughter loved the scarf she made. The only suggestion I have is to make the needles just a bit smaller. Good value for the price.

Difficult to use . I don't knit and that this would be an easy activity for my 9 year old and me. We never got past "casting on" and the sticks were actually too big. The yarn slipped off too easily.
