Customer Reviews
Bjørn will always hold a special place in my heart as he was the first Wooble I learned to crochet! I made a few scarves in my day using fancy yarn and single crochet, but never did I think I could crank out something like this! Thank you, Justine, for your expert instructions and videos and for teaching this middle-aged dog a new trick!
Before doing this, I have never touched a crochet hook in my life. I had seen these ads on Facebook and thought they looked adorable, so I asked for a kit for Christmas and my sister got me Bjørn.
The videos were so helpful, and I love that they're divided into steps so that you can go back and watch the steps that give you trouble as many times as you need to. I was able to pick it up pretty quickly (even the magic loop only took me a couple of tries with the video) and ended up finishing it in one weekend. Now Bjørn is sitting on my desk at work!
Woobles, thank you for teaching me something I never really thought I could do and making it FUN...I'm hooked!
I started with Pierre the Penguin — and I’m glad because this guy is a little more complicated! I’m glad I had some knowledge under my belt as the videos were great refreshers to skills I’d already learned. I still would highly recommend this product as a second piece because it builds on new skills (like color changing and crocheting together two pieces - the tails)
I’m 13 and already kinda new how to crochet but I got this for Christmas from my big brother. And I basically relearned everything. I also perfected lots of skills and learned new ones too! Lots of fun if you already now how and if u want to learn! Definitely recommend was my favorite Christmas present!
Although Björn is very adorable, the videos aren’t designed for all beginner “levels”. Particularly the video for changing yarn colors— it is too quick and grainy when you try to zoom in to see exactly what the slip stitch maneuver is that she is doing. I am having to find other people’s tutorials and emailing Wooble to figure this part out. HIGHLY recommend beginners start with Pierre the Penguin as the video tutorials are in shorter segments, the video quality is better, and the explanations easier to understand. Also, the video tutorials for this amigurumi aren’t of Björn, they are videos of showing how to do particular stitches. Whereas with Pierre, the videos are actually of Pierre. Picture is my fourth attempt to do the slip stitch for yarn change color :(
I would have given this a 5-star if the video tutorials had been like they were for Pierre.
Hi Tasha - Justine here, co-founder of The Woobles and person in the videos. Glad to hear you learned how to crochet with The Woobles, and sorry to hear that your experience learning how to color change has been such a terrible experience. FWIW, your color change looks correct, and I hope that our expert Wooblers gave you excellent customer service! We're a wee woobly business so it takes some time to migrate all of our tutorials to the new format that Pierre the Penguin is in, so we appreciate your patience as we tirelessly work on improving the crochet learning experience.
