I've been crocheting for a few years but this kit was my first wearable project. So my first project where blocking and sizing are really important. I heard natural fibers like cotton and bamboo will stretch when blocked and the Coboo yarn in this kit was no exception. The stitches used have a lot of give to it so my first attempt ended up too large. Luckily I was able to figure it out from just the first part of the pattern and started again with a smaller hook size. The sizes are listed clearly in the pattern and I was at the small end of one size range so that probably contributed to my issues.
I only used the written pattern and not the attached video and didn't have an issue with figuring out the pattern. The stitch pattern was very easy to learn and memorize. I like that the row stitch counts in the pattern were listed as (# of puff stitches, # of shell stitches) instead of total stitches per row, it made it much easier for me to track. The garment construction was easy to figure out. As a bonus, the parts of the shirt were all built off of the first part made so I didn't have multiple pieces floating around to be attached later - I'm not great at finishing those kinds of projects!
Overall, I'm very satisfied with this kit and my first shirt! It has given me more confidence to try making more shirts in the future.
