Rising Phoenix Industries Chunky Throw Blanket DIY Knit Kit, Super Soft Thick Yarn w/Large Wood Knitting Needles US 50 Set (Burgundy & Taupe)

My husband bought this as a gift for me. It is a complete waste of money! The yarn has ripped apart several times during knitting and the instructions are incorrect to achieve the pattern. We paid $120.00 for a pair of size 50 knitting needles and the worst yarn I have ever seen. I only gave it one star because I had to!

This package arrived ahead of schedule and it is very easy to follow the directions. Would buy again, just wish there were more color kits to order.

Good buy for the price. Pros: color is pretty, needles are good quality, project is pretty easy. Cons: -There was a metal splinter in a skein of yarn. I’m making a baby blanket and it’s light dusty rose so luckily I found it as I was knitting because it was sharp but this could have been a huge problem. -Synthetic, not wool. -The directions are missing a key instruction that if you are new to following patterns you’ll get it wrong after the first row. It’s a Seed Stitch and you reverse the pattern in row 2, 4, 6 etc. (pearl pearl knit knit). The directions omit the reverse part. You won’t get ribbing if you follow the directions as written. I’ll definitely use the needles again but won’t be rushing to buy more yarn skeins from this supplier.
