Good starter kit for the beginner
This kit is adorable! I got it for my 26-year-old son after he got an interest watching me and his brother. He needs a little bit of help figuring out the instructions as an absolute newbie but it's an overall deal

Not for beginners
This product is really cute in pictures. Frustrating, confusing, and the video has annoying music, annoying narrative voice, speed up to the 100s completely impossible to follow. The video is blurry and the written instructions useless for a beginner.You are probably better off learning how to crochet with other videos and THEN pay so much for yarn. Not worth the expense.

Could use a little improvement
Am-11 Dwen Dwen The Chicken:After learning from The W**bles, I decided to try out a bunch of other Amigurumi kits.Second up is a Chicken kit. It comes with a pattern booklet, & YouTube videos you can follow along with. This kit was $19.99 USD.This kit comes with a key ring, so this gal is meant to be small. This kit comes with a decent 2mm crochet hook. This is very tiny. I haven’t used one this small yet. I tried it for the first 2 rounds, but it is so tiny that the yarn doesn’t fit in the hook. I ended up using my 3.5mm ergonomic crochet hook instead. So, my final result will end up a bit bigger than the pattern intended.I like the neatness & tightness of the under / over single crochet stitch method better than the over / over method previously learned. I do not like the slip stitch + chain 1 join method used at the end of each round. It leaves a visible seam. I used an “invisible seam” method instead.The yarn is nice to work with.The kit comes with eye pins. You are supposed to melt the provided glue stick with a lighter, dab glue on the eyes & shove them in place into the yarn. I used safety eyes instead, you just have to remember to put them in as you go. You are also supposed to glue the white eyeballs & beak to the body, which is ridiculous. Leave a long tail & sew them on.I struggled with the tiny pieces. I can’t imagine making those with a 2mm hook. Anything less than 6 starter stitches is too small for me. The yarn also split a lot working these tiny pieces, especially when slip stitching. The beak pattern is not great, shape wise & direction wise. The say that the top is the short piece, but the video shows it being at the bottom. I put 3 spikes in the crown, instead of the 2 required.If you can successfully complete a W**bles Amigurumi character, you should be able to make this.There appears to be enough yarn left over to make another Chicken Amigurumi.

Cute
I have been crocheting for over 30 years but I have never used a pattern or read a pattern. I thought that this would be a nice way to start using patterns, plus the instructions are Very Easy to read.The cost of the product is a bit high, the overall value for money was average to too high. The quality of the yarn and accessories is good. I may or may not purchase a second kit for practice but I would not spend this kind of money for a children to learn to crochet.

NOT FOR BEGINNERS
The Videos make it sound so easy to do, that is the farthest from the truth.
