Hi Litsa, thanks for sharing! I must admit that compared to some other crochet advent calendars, I think the Hobbii one is very expensive for what you get. I will say that I have used the Honey Bunny sparkle, and made some mabel chickens with it 😊 I loved working with it.
Thank you so much for showing 😀 I only work with natural fiber. And this advent calendar have too much acrylic for my taste. Thank you for saving my money😀
@@cherylmarriner4635 Hi Cheryl 🤗 I’m sooo happy you enjoyed the unboxing…I’ll be unboxing 2024 Advent Calendar soon! Please watch our Hobbii playlist, you’ll find all the projects from 2023 Advent Calendar! 🎄 🥰🧶🤩
I bought this a couple weeks ago and didn’t want to open it until I needed too but I also need spoilers so been waiting for someone to post a video!! First time I’ve ordered it after seeing a video for last years and I’m not gonna lie it didn’t really blow me away but it’s made me more intrigued to find out what the patterns could be! X
Hi Chloe 🤗 I’m intrigued to find out what the patterns are too! Please share your makes if you like! It will be fun to compare our thoughts on each project! 🥰🧶🤩
Thank you for sharing. I thought about getting the advent calendar but I'm glad I didn't. I would have been disappointed not much yarn for the price tag. I get that there are extras but I'm all about the yarn.😅
I have the crochet key ring, very awkward to use, but if you happen to be waiting somewhere and have yarn, they work fine. I just really like the idea of them which is why I have them 🙂
Thank you Litsa. I wish they did not have so much wool. Highly allergic. But there are a couple tickets that look fun! Thanks for doing this so we can see if we wanted to buy it or not. They always do a hat and you got a pom pom maker so I am guessing that's one. The Flash It yarn is good for baskets. It's a type of ribbon yarn. I like it! There were ornaments last year so maybe a few of those. And you got earring kits and think yarn so maybe you'll make earrings!
Hi Litsa ,thanks for sharing,I have bought them in the past but I am buying Natural Fibre Arts calandra and it is merino minies . You will make a project using the Kid Silk mohair and merino skein together. You will enjoy working with those yarns
Hi Frances 🤗 I was hoping we’d hold both yarns together, the kid silk is way too thin! Hmm 🤔 Natural Fibre Arts calandar, I’ll have to check it out! 🥰🧶🤩
@@cocoscrochet6380 Hi Litsa I bought mine prior to the Crochet Conference this is the last time they are doing it.I was given priority access as I get her monthly club
I have used the extra fine marino, hunny bunny (regular) found working with both of them easy to work with. Also have the key chain with the 3 hooks, on my car keys and ibhave used them before just to try out new yarns before purchase (10 st 2 rows) wouldnt use for a whole project hooks are too short.
Hello from Canada! I purchased it but was curious about the spoiler, lol. That sparkly yarn should have come with a zipper as it would make a nice evening purse! I'm not much into making Christmas Ornaments but looks like there will be at least one christmas ornament project with the red and green minis. The colours of the yarns are lovely tho. Pom Pom maker...am thinking a beanie with pom pom will be another project. I do wish that each project came with a printout as I don't like working on patterns from a screen and don't have a colour printer. Videos for each project would be even BETTER!! Too bad these Calendars won't come in individual boxes which are reuseable for storage or gift giving. The paper bags are 'cheap'. Not sure if I'll do another calendar next year as with the CDN exchange it came to over $150 which seems costly for the 'contents'. Still, I like the surprise aspect of the projects to follow along.
Hi Tina 🤗 I agree, printouts & videos of the patterns would be awesome! I’d love to see your finished projects! I’m guessing Christmas 🎄 ornaments as well! 🥰🧶🤩
Thanks for sharing this video. I've always been intrigued to know what's in their adverts, but tbh they are too pricey in the UK £85, to take a chance. Having seen tge contents now, I'm not sure if it's good value... I love their yarn my favs are 84 cotton for amigurumi and I've just started using honey bunny candy. It's feels lovely to work with but you have to feel the stitches as you can't see them clearly and if you melt the ends with a flame (carefully), it won't unravel. Looking forward to your future vids.
Hi meeshynye 🤗 I’m sooo happy you enjoyed this video! Thank you for sharing your experiences with Hobbii yarns! Looking forward to hanging out with you in the future! 🥰🧶🤩
I love Hobbii’s products very very much, and i was very excited for this year’s calendar, but i am just surprised how many pinks are in the bags! I love a good classic green-red-gold Christmas for sure⭐️ tips for friends kid silk: it is laceweight yarn, so double stranding is a good idea! Also, make sure to have a plan beforehand and try not to make mistakes because it is almost impossible to frog!!💛
@@cocoscrochet6380 it is almost 3 AM and I got the hiccups when I got up to go to the potty. I don’t like the scratchiness of wool. My Mom used to buy me wool skirts. I fidgeted when I wore them.
Thank you for this!!!!! I've worked with the flash it before (made some "paper chains"), it's ok, but I wouldn't go out and buy it again. Overall for me, this would be a bust as I'm also allergic to animal fibres 😢. But it's good to know in advancr
Hi catmumcrafts 🤗 this is why I like to share…so you can “try before you buy” so to speak! Hmm 🤔 I wonder if we’ll crochet Christmas ornaments with the flash it yarn?! 🥰🧶🤩
Coming from a person who has ordered form Hobbii multiple times and has shopped from the pointshop the things you’ve gotten are stuff that they don’t sell very well. That keychain with three small crochet hooks is on their pointshop and I think one or two more items as well. This calendar wasn’t very good imo. Lovely video though!
@@cocoscrochet6380 Yes do that! The price is too high for what you get. A calendar should consist of really good stuff for a great deal! Hopefully they’ll improve but I’m sure they eventually will! ☺️
Greetings from Germany. Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately it is like the one last year, just that they used even more cheap paper bags, not really worth the money. 😅
Greetings from Germany. Thanks for sharing what's inside the calendar. Last year I was disappointed by hobbii. I didn't like the colour of the yarn, and the patterns were too complicated. This year, the calendar is way better, but I won't buy it. Hobbii publishes the patterns for free every year. I will be excited to see what you can crochet.
The keyring crochet hooks can be bought from Shein for 99p. I bought them to bring on holiday. It seems very expensive for the little you get
Hi Shauna 🤗 thank you for sharing that the keyring crochet hooks can be used to crochet, I wasn’t sure if they were just a cute keying! 🥰🧶🤩

My knit bags were a bit different with the yarns

@cocoscrochet6380 yes I do, I love both equally so it was hard to choose one or the other haha, glad I got to see the crochet unboxing.
