I am so excited to share this kit review with you! For a while now I have been wanting to try a kit from We Are Knitters. Needless to say, I was over the moon when they offered to send me their Botos Tee to review! I love the simplicity of this top. It is so stylish and functional and I absolutely love the fringe! I mean, who doesn’t love fringe? I love an effortless look, and I feel We Are Knitters nailed it with their Botos Tee! 

A special thanks to We Are Knitters for providing the kit for this review!

WE ARE KNITTERS: WHO ARE THEY?

We Are Knitters is a global and fashion brand that creates knitting, crochet, petit point, and arm knitting kits. They also provide some of the softest and most luxurious yarn that you could ever work with! Their knitting needles and crochet hooks are handmade from 100% beechwood. All We Are Knitter’s wool and cotton is 100% natural and their bags are recyclable and reusable! I love that they design their kits with beginner knitters and crocheters in mind! They also have a blog that offers video tutorials, tips, techniques and patterns.

 

THE BOTOS TEE KIT: WHAT’S INSIDE?

I love that this kit provides everything that you need to complete your pattern…from start to finish! We Are Knitters really thought of everything!

What the kit includes:

  • 4 skeins of Pima Cotton
  • 5mm Crochet Hook (optional)
  • The pattern which includes instructions for 4 sizes (S, M, L, XL)
  • Pack of sewing needles
  • Embroidered label
  • We Are Knitter’s packaging

They also provided some awesome stickers as well!

I love the color selection for this kit. With 30 color options, you are bound to find a color you love! Given that my favorite color is Purple, I had to choose the Mauve color. When buying the kit, you have the option to not include the given crochet hook. So if you are looking so save some money, you can opt to not include it in your kit. I will say, I enjoyed using the hook! It is very high quality and I love how light it felt in my hand.

THE BOTOS TEE PATTERN

The pattern for this kit was super simple. I would highly recommend this kit to beginner crocheters. We Are Knitters suggests crocheting a gauge swatch before starting the pattern. I am really glad I did because my gauge was way off. Keep in mind though I tighten my stitches when crocheting.  The soft and breathable pima cotton makes this a perfect wearable for hot weather! The fist thing I noticed about the yarn is that it has such a gorgeous drape! A lot of cotton yarns can be stiff. Not this yarn! It was a dream to work with.  It is so silky and has a beautiful subtle sheen. The fringe was so easy to attach. I just love how it looks!

Overall, this kit was just a dream to work with! I really felt that We Are Knitters put a lot of thought into this kit. If you are looking for the perfect gift for someone who crochets, this is it. It is such a simple, yet gorgeous pattern.

I know the Botos Tee will be a staple in my spring and summer wardrobe! I’m already thinking about making it in other colors!

I really hope you have enjoyed this kit review! Don’t forget to tag We Are Knitters on Instagram with your creations!

Just me? 🙄 Now we only have 3 weeks til Christmas! 🥺 Just craziness! I love this time of year though. I do love the summer but for me, nothing beats the holidays! ⛄🎄🦌 What's your favorite time of year? .

    Instagram post 2182239346869236486_4215395710 Last week I posted a tutorial for this stitch and just realized I never shared it here. This is the Forked Cluster Stitch. It's an easy stitch that creates amazing texture. And my favorite part about this stitch?....it's reversible! I love reversible stitches because they work so well for cowls, scarves and wraps. What would you make with this stitch?

    Instagram post 2175716321248390628_4215395710 New Pattern! The Trailblazer Earwarmer is such a fun and quick make. I used @lionbrandyarn Color Made Easy yarn for this project. I was able to make 4 Earwarmers from just one skein. I also used my 50% off coupon at @acmoorecrafts so it was a win-win! 👏😁 This pattern is super simple and works up ridiculously quick. Seriously, I have to stop making them! 😬 Actually, no. I think I need to make some it darker colors. What colors would you choose for this pattern? Link to pattern in bio. .

    Instagram post 2174915382914519755_4215395710 Well it's almost mid November and we're still waiting for it to actually get cold. 🤷❄️ Today will be in the 60's 🤦 I might look a little odd wearing my Cambridge Scarf today but oh well! 😁 How is the weather where you all are? I would seriously love to see some snow! Maybe just a flurry or two 🤞❄️🌨️☃️

    Instagram post 2165554211621042491_4215395710 The Colorblock Tunisian Scarf is one of my favorite patterns 🤗 Crocheted with @yarnspirations Caron Pantone yarn. I just love these colors together! 💜😍 It's a bummer that my @michaels store doesn't carry this yarn anymore 🤷 I'm trying to find a good substitute. If anyone has  suggestions I'd love to know! . .
