It's a complete starter kit designed for those completely new to crochet, ideal for young crafters or anyone wanting to learn basic stitches and create colourful projects. The kit includes soft polyester yarn in a vibrant multicoloured palette, a crochet hook, and a plastic needle alongside clear instructions.

This is a great gift idea, particularly for craft lovers during Christmas or for enjoying cosy creative evenings at home. It’s a straightforward project that delivers a satisfying result quickly. While designed for beginners, it's best suited as an introduction to crochet rather than a comprehensive kit due to the smaller size of the finished squares.
The kit contains one complete set and measures approximately 17.9 x 10.8 x 5.5 centimetres with a weight of just 0.11 kilograms. The materials used are cardboard, polyester yarn, and assorted stick garnets. It’s manufactured in China and comes with a printed coloured design on Binca with 6 strands and 6 stick garnets.
