CYANFOUR4 Stage Beginners Embroidery Kit for Adults, Easy to Learn 38 Different Stitches from Instruction & Video, Craft Kits for Adults with Stamped Embroidery Patterns

I absolutely loved the CYANFOUR 4 Stage Embroidery Kit! As a beginner, I really appreciated how the kit walks you through different skill levels step by step. The instructions are clear, the designs are beautiful, and all the materials feel high-quality. It’s a relaxing and creative way to unwind. It was great gift for my teenage daughter. Highly recommend for anyone curious about embroidery or looking for a new hobby!

We bought two of these to gift. The quality for the price is great. It comes with multiple pieces to practice on so I think it’s great for beginners. Works well for different age groups, teens and kids. It was easy to follow as the print on the canvas was easy to see. The yarn was vibrant and sturdy.

This is a pretty good kit for the price. Comes with everything you need except enough thread. I noticed other reviews mentioned that but bought it anyway because I have extra thread on hand. I already know some basic embroidery so this was just to brush up my skills. I noticed the instructions are calling for 3 or 6 strands of thread on some of the designs, I found that to be entirely too much, that's why people are running out of thread. Two strands were sufficient for most of the designs, sometimes three. Never use 6, use 4 at the most. And the names of some of the stitches are not the proper name, it's as if it was designed by someone who has never done embroidery. That being said, combine this kit, with some extra thread, and a basic embroidery stitch guide, and it should turn out just fine. Just remember to reduce the number of threads stated if it doesn't look right to you.

I have quilted all sorts of quilts such as memory, art and traditional but wanted to add another element to the quilts. I was delighted to find how well this kit is put together. Everything is in the kit to practice different stitches. When completed this is a great reference comparison on how different stitches would look in my project with 1-6 thread counts. The plus is the kit comes with a nice manual but even more link to instructional videos - a perfect blend!!! Highly recommend this kit if you are even considering trying out embroidery!

Fun for the wife, and I could see kids liking it. Good functionality and instructions. Fairly easy to use once you learn how but watching YouTube videos has helped a lot. Good design and color selection.

This was my first ever embroidery project; I knew absolutely nothing going in. I'm not sure it's the best thing for a first project (try searching "embroidery cards" instead, and get yourself either a book on embroidery for beginners, or someone who can answer questions as you go). I honestly don't know if I could have completed the kit without the help I got from a friend.While I learned a lot, it definitely leaves a lot to be desired; the instructions aren't very clear or easy to understand, and having that missing information would have helped, a lot.For example, it comes with a piece of cardstock that's full of holes. The instructions don't mention it (and there's no materials list), not what it is or what it's for. Turns out it's for organizing your floss, and keeping it from getting all tangled -- information that would have saved me a lot of time and headache, but I never would have figured out on my own (a friend had to explain it to me).And, it doesn't say anywhere how much floss you should use for each stitch or part of the pattern (like, how long a piece you need). This is a real problem, as you only get so much of each color to use across all six of the patterns. I used the majority of a couple colors doing just the first pattern, and a couple more doing the next couple patterns, so I ended up having to use extra floss (that didn't come with the kit) to complete the other patterns, which meant I had to get creative instead of following the instructions exactly.I also had to look up videos on YouTube to figure out some of the stitches, because the included pictures weren't clear enough; they lack the written instructions alongside the pictures that actually explain what to do. Like, for one of the stitches, you need to complete the next movement of the needle before pulling your floss through (if that makes sense), or it wont work -- and, worse, it'll put a knot in your floss and screw up what you're doing -- but it doesn't actually say that anywhere. The pictures are also incredibly hard to see; they use patterns drawn in grey, so the [silver] needle in the pictures is hard to see against the patterns, and they often jump to the next move without explaining how to get there. There's a lot of trial and error involved, which could easily be avoided with a little more instruction.I started with the "Easy" pattern (of course), and it does have a QR code that takes you to a YouTube video... but the video it links to is of the "Normal" pattern. So the video instructions don't match the patterns, making them kind of useless.I ended up using the kit just for practice, instead of seeing it as my first project, and not necessarily doing it as instructed to get the most out of it. For example, embroidery floss is made up of six strings that can be divided, and the instructions say to use all six for most things on the pattern, but I quickly realized it's much easier (and comes out much better, more legible) to use just two or three (which I learned is actually the norm in embroidery).All-in-all, this kit is missing some essentials, but does teach you quite a bit. Again, if you had a book on embroidery for beginners, and / or someone you can talk to when you have questions, you'd do a lot better than if you just had this kit.It is a pretty great value for the price. Just know you might get frustrated with it, and possibly need to supplement some of your materials. If you haven't embroidered in twenty years and want to refresh your knowledge and skills, this kit is perfect; if you're just starting out, you might need some help.

Super cute, arrived quickly, nice price point for a beginner (compared to the $40 price for similar aproducts) , clear instructions and links to YouTube videos to help. Excited to have a minute to play around w this.

This was value for the buck! Had so much fun learning embroidery while on a trip. Teaches you all the stitches with a great visual charts to follow. Comes with everything you need— including threader and scissors too! Highly recommend this teaching tool.
