not sure i'll embroider much more, but fun while it lasted
The kit had plenty of thread in nice colors, plenty of backup needle threaders (I eventually broke 1 of the 4), and nice designs. A very few of the instructions on ow to do different stitches weren't quite enough for me, so I went to youtube, but in general the booklet was clear - make sure you flip to the back for clear guidelines on number of threads and colors to use. My stitches weren't perfect, but the resulting embroideries still look nice from a distance.

Best beginner kit
I love everything I have ever bought from craftiloo. The kits are very thoughtfully curated and come with everything you need. The instructions are great and the projects are cute. This is my third kit I have bought from the company. They also offer amazing customer service with quick response. I also highly recommend the children’s embroidery kit and cross stitch. My daughter loves them. Instead of asking to watch TV she now wants to sit with me and work on embroidery.

Good beginners set
I have enjoyed doing the first two stitch practice/dictionary. It is really annoying that the black writing is also water soluble so if I want to get rid of the blue, I will have to rewrite the names of the stitches. The color scheme included with the kit was fine, but I had also bought a supplemental floss kit that had more colors and I chose to do a real rainbow instead of what was provided.I liked that it had a stitch ripper, needles, and several needle threaders. It’s important to pay attention to how many strands each stitch uses or else the threader may break if you use all six.The booklet included was so-so. I’m more of a YouTube person for learning stitches it turns out.Another sort of annoying thing is that the stitches on the stitch dictionary piece are repeating. There are 30 stitches but there were about 24 unique ones on there. (Also whipped back stitch is spelled wrong on one of them but it won’t matter when I wash it and it comes out anyway). Overall I would recommend.

Hours & Hours of Entertainment. Great for Learning
The media could not be loaded. I cross stitched as a kid but never learned other stitches. This was a great beginning set; the only thing I had to provide was scissors. And YouTube. Don’t expect to be able to learn the stitches from the book. I just searched on YouTube, watched the stitch, then did it myself. I spent about 4-5 hours combined on the first one, just finished it and still have two more to do! Best $15 ever spent. Highly recommend. (I did bag up the thread and tools separately in zip lock bags; the kit didn’t come with them and I keep it all together in the zippered bag it came in).

Looks great, perfect starter kit
This kit has clean crisp lines for practice and the patterns included are cute enough to display. Great value for a beginner kit! Use TikTok or YouTube to supplement if you need more assistance with stitches. Additionally, use shorter lengths of floss to start. 1/2 to 1/3 of length given will make it easier to work with.

Love this
The colors are so bright and the fabric is the perfect texture. The book it comes with explains all the stitches perfectly. It's so good for beginners

Cheap materials break after first use
The kit comes with two needle threaders. One broke the first time I attempted to use it, as the needle eyes are too small to comfortably thread. I was able to thread a needle once with the other one, but on the next attempt, first the needle broke, followed by the threader. The instructions in the beginning of the book are a bit ambiguous but overall fine; however, since I no longer have a way to thread the needles, I can't comment on the quality after the first three stitches. I will probably end up buying a new needle set to try to finish the project, but given how quickly and easily the materials broke, I would not consider this a complete kit.EDIT: I learned today that you are rarely supposed to use all the threads of floss when stitching. The needle eyes may have been big enough for a few threads--I got rid of them so can't check--but did go through the instruction booklet to doublecheck, and there's no mention of splitting the threads or how many to use in the practice stitches. Maybe it's a complete kit with incomplete instructions, or maybe it's not actually meant for beginners. Bumped to three stars because the elephant turned out nicely so I'm feeling forgiving.

Buen set para iniciar o practicar puntadas
El paquete esta my completo, las impresiones de los patrones se ven perfectamente y el manual explica muy bien como aplicar cada una de las puntadas, así que si eres principiante o necesitas reforzar las puntadas basicas este es un kit para ti.Los colores de los hilos son muy bonitos, desafortunadamente la calidad no es la mejor, tienden a hacer muchos nudos, pero por el precio es de esperarse.

No instructions on how to do the stitches!!!
I don't understand the point of this tool to learn embroidery, since there are no instructions on how to make the stitches.
