Have you ever dreamed of picking up a crochet hook and bringing cute characters to life—even if you’ve never crocheted before? With the Yummy Friends Beginner Crochet Kits, learning this timeless craft has never been easier—or more fun. These kits go beyond teaching you how to make a single project; they set you on a creative journey with step-by-step video tutorials that make learning to crochet an engaging and enjoyable experience.
Meet the Yummy Friends
If you’ve ever looked at an adorable animal or your favorite snack and thought, “You’re so cute, I could eat you up!” (figuratively, of course), you’re not alone.
There’s something magical about combining the joy of cuddly creatures with the comfort of delicious treats.
Now, imagine channeling that love into a creative journey—one where you can craft your own delightful plushie while learning or sharpening a fun and timeless skill.
At the heart of these kits are three lovable, foodie-inspired characters:
Boba Cow Charlie
With his milk-tea-colored body and tapioca-inspired spots, Charlie is “udderly” adorable! He’s a perfect companion for bubble tea enthusiasts or anyone who loves a cozy, cute plushie.
Cookie Turtle Tim
A delightful blend of turtle charm and cookie sweetness, Tim’s cookie-textured shell and sunny personality make him a standout project.
Ice Cream Axolotl Ari
Axolotls have taken the world by storm in recent years, and you can celebrate their charm in the sweetest way possible with Ice Cream Axolotl Ari! With his adorable ice cream cone body and whimsical details, Ari is a delightful blend of sweet treat and beloved amphibian.
Each Yummy Friend comes with its own personality and charm, making the crafting experience feel like creating your new best friend.
What’s in the Kit?
Everything you need to bring your Yummy Friend to life is included:
- Soft, stretchy yarn from Lion Brand, perfect for beginners
- A 4 mm crochet hook, safety eyes, polyfill stuffing, and stitch markers
- Craft glue, felt sheets, and a tapestry needle for finishing touches
- Interactive video tutorials powered by Ribblr to guide you step by step
- A collectible character card and a bonus recipe to pair with your crafting session
These kits are thoughtfully curated to ensure that every crafter, no matter their skill level, has the tools and guidance they need for a successful project.
Perfect for Crafters of All Ages
These kits are designed to make crochet accessible for everyone—kids, teens, and adults alike. Younger crafters may need a little help with certain steps, but the process of creating your Yummy Friend is a fun, rewarding experience for all ages. Younger children may need some help with the tapestry needle, but crochet can help them develop hand-eye coordination and unlock their inner creativity.
