We love it 😍

Set comes with yarn, knitting tool, and instructions. Great deal!

As a devoted Harry Potter fan and an avid crocheter, the "Harry Potter Crochet" kit has brought together two of my favorite passions in the most delightful and magical way possible. This crochet kit is an absolute gem that offers not just a crafting experience, but a journey into the enchanting world of Hogwarts and its beloved characters.It provides everything you need to create your own miniature Harry Potter universe through crochet. From yarn and crochet hooks to stuffing and detailed instructions, the kit leaves no stone unturned in ensuring that your crafting journey is smooth and enjoyable.The patterns included in the kit are a joy to work on. They range from iconic characters like Harry, Hermione, and Ron, to beloved magical creatures such as Hedwig the owl and Dobby the house-elf. The patterns are well-written, easy to follow, and include step-by-step instructions and clear images that guide you through every stitch. Whether you're a seasoned crocheter or a beginner, the kit caters to various skill levels and provides an opportunity to create adorable and recognizable figures.The attention to detail in the finished crochet pieces is simply remarkable. The characters and creatures you create are true to their on-screen counterparts, capturing their essence and personality. The small details like Harry's glasses, Hermione's Gryffindor scarf, and Dobby's mismatched socks make each piece incredibly endearing and satisfying to complete.Additionally, the kit's packaging is a work of art in itself. The box features stunning illustrations and designs that immediately transport you to the magical world of Harry Potter. It's a collector's item in its own right and adds to the overall charm of the crafting experience.One minor consideration is that crochet can be a meticulous and time-consuming craft, especially when working on intricate details. While the patterns are well-structured, some patience is required, especially for those new to crochet. However, the sense of accomplishment and the joy of seeing your favorite characters come to life far outweigh the effort invested.It offers a delightful blend of creativity, nostalgia, and crafting, allowing you to immerse yourself in the magic of Harry Potter while creating tangible keepsakes. Whether you're looking to craft your own Hogwarts-inspired display or seeking a unique gift for a fellow Potterhead, this kit is an enchanting and delightful journey that brings the wizarding world to your fingertips. Unleash your creativity, wield your crochet hook like a wand, and let the magic of Harry Potter Crochet whisk you away on an unforgettable crafting adventure.

I purchased this kit for $15.95 (reduced from full price of $24.95). As noted in the description, the kit contains materials to crochet only Harry and Dobby. The yarn is very poor quality – I touched it and threw it away. Apparently, some kits contained a crochet hook fashioned as a wand – I did not receive that hook, which is fine – I use Clover hooks. I purchased enough Lizbeth crochet thread size 3 (and additional materials) to crochet all 13 characters plus 3 each of the student robe and scarf – spending well over $150.The pattern book is very good. Instructions are clear and easy to follow – with excellent how-to photographs. Overall, these are much better directions than two other “official” Harry Potter crochet books that display only lovely images of the finished items. I am an advanced crocheter – I made a few adjustments and added an occasional embellishment. Even though the stitches are basic (mostly single crochet and variations thereof), I don’t suggest this kit for beginner crocheters – the crochet is almost secondary to the high levels of patience, precision and diligence required to complete each amigurumi piece. I spent 15 to 20 hours crocheting each character. Additionally, if you have arthritic hands and fingers, this project may be a painful exercise.I highly recommend accessing the designer’s website – do an internet search for Lucy Collin Crochet. Don’t be misled if you end up at Luch Ravenscar – that’s her. At any rate, Lucy’s blog details corrections to errors in the patterns (there are only a few) and which yarns she used when making the Harry Potter Amigurumi figures (which are much better quality than those included in the kit). Lucy also has an Instagram page and she is on Ravelry. Ravelry is a good place to view photos of other crocheters’ work on this project.My opinion, in summary:*This kit is not for beginners.*The pattern book alone is worth the $15.95 that I spent on it.*Check out the designer’s website.*The reason why I gave this kit a 4 and not a 5: The materials are inferior; it is necessary to purchase additional and decent materials. However, if I were rating only the book – and not the kit – I would give the book a 5.P.S. My review includes a photograph of the figures I crocheted using all the patterns in Lucy Collin’s book, and also (1) the Sorting Hat I crocheted using the pattern from Lee Satori’s Harry Potter Crochet Wizardry, and (2) the Harry Potter Hardcover Boxed Set containing books 1 through 7 in a truck-like box.

Probably not the best for beginners but I certainly tried. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. Yarn colors are great and the quality of the yarn is good. All pieces/parts/supplies are included. I had fun trying to make them. 🤪

Bought for my daughter in law for Christmas and she absolutely loved it! She has been wanting it for a while so i jumped on it for her. i recommend to anyone that loves harry potter and crocheting

I would have been able to give 5 stars if they had enough dark grey yarn for the project. Harry on gets a partial right leg with what they have included. Seems I am not the only one with this issue. I’m hopeful to find a matching color to finish the project!

My sister loves everything about it. Will be looking in to other colors of yarn for her for the other characters.
