I grew up knitting with my nan, but haven’t picked it up in years. Doing this kit made me fall in love with knitting again and was so nostalgic. Instructions were really clear, yarn was fantastic, and I really appreciated that you could see the different colours you were choosing on the website itself. Will be getting more kits now - I’m addicted!

This was really fun to knit! Was my second knit kit that I’ve completed and I’m very happy with how it turned out.

I enjoyed the kit and the colours are lovely. However, once finished I was sad when after only 2 wears the wool went really bobbly. It makes it look old before you have even had a chance to enjoy it. The wool is too loosely spun to brush. Very disappointing given the cost :(

I found the project fun and look forward to wearing the cardigan. However, I feel I should mention that one of the balls had damage which caused a bit of manipulation from me. There was a huge lump in the spinning followed by a really skinny length. This was in two places. The yarn also broke in one place in the same ball. Please regard this information as my attempt at being useful and not as criticism. Things happen and maybe you can prevent future problems.

This is my second Olivia Cardigan. Love all the colours you can choose from - the possibilities are endless. She was a great kit to learn to knit with and perfect for anyone who really wants to knit but has never tried and a little afraid to take the plunge. That was me!! You can do it too! I have now knit seven cardigans and I am sure there will be more Olivia’s in my future.

I have ony just started knitting. I love the colours, thick wool, and big needles.

Sadly, the split open parcel was delivered by a smoking driver and the wool reeked of cigarette smoke. The product itself is fabulous.

Made this one for a friend in the USA - it’s on its way to her now and pretty sure she’s going to love it. I love the colours she chose!
