Where to find Crochet Kits?

[donnalynn2]

I am starting to get "What do you want for Christmas this year" questions and instead of telling people I want anything to support my crochet habit I thought directing them to a website that sold entire kits with a list of what I want would be better! The problem is I can't find any! I know they are out there (the only one I can find is on the Lion Brand Site)... Anyone have any links? THANKS A BUNCH!

Hmmm.. doesn't Annies Attic sell kits? I have seen a few there anyway. Great idea by the way!

I think Herrschner's and Mary Maxim have kits.

I have an ALWAYS-updated wish list on the Herrschner's site for kits. They seem to be the only ones (other than Mary Maxim and Lion Brand) that have halfway decent crochet kits. I've noticed that the high-end yarn sites tend to have just AWFUL kits for crocheting and much better ones for knitting...

 

If anyone else knows of good crocheting kits on other sites, do tell!

While looking for a holiday pattern I stumbled upon this website. www.cuddleup-creations.com I emailed the owner and the outcomes for the kits are absolutely gorgeous! Unfortunately they didn't have the kit i wanted but I'm planning on buying one of the patterns!

Thanks for the link! I didn't see the kits because I didn't get past all the graphs! I've got it bookmarked though.

Just abut three weeks ago I got my Burst Afghan kit from Mary Maxim, so I know they have them. (Kits that is)

I think Lion Brand has kits as well - in the catalog, they list pattern price and price with kit, so I would assume... maybe they are online too?

Thanks for all the wonderful suggestions! This site has me troubled a bit though. Most of her patterns are liscenced graphs and I cannot imagine Disney letting that happen.

 

This does give me a starting point though and as soon as I can sift through and find a few kits that I like I can at least let people know I'd like them. Maybe I'll get lucky and get one for Christmas!

I'm late reading this thread, Donna, but if you're still looking for crochet kit sources, I found crochet kits at:

 

- DreamWeaver

- Stitch Diva

 

These sites have some really beautiful yarns and very nice patterns. You just need to decide if something here is to your taste.
