3.5 stars, just not as great as previous years
Jimmy Bean's does a great job with Craftvent, so I would definitely encourage you to give it a try in the future. This year was not as good in my opinion as last time that I did it, but I applaud JBW for putting this together in a pandemic. Some of it is just my personal preference I like sampling a variety of yarns in the kit. But some are more universal issues. The pattern had way too many errors and still does even after a final super-duper proofread, and some of the surprises for you were not up to snuff some were amazing!. It's fine to give hot cocoa, but please not a cruddy store brand. Give a pack a gourmet cocoa to support another small businessnot a subpar product from a corporation that has broken its pledge against not using child labor!!

I love Craftvent!
This is my first Craftvent but not my last. I'm so impressed with all of the work that went into putting these calendars together. The yarns are just yummy, and I love the needles that we received as well as the other items. The wrap is coming together beautifully, and the yarns are really lovely I can't rave about them enough. It's a nice way to sample yarns and make something beautiful.

Dreadful Colors, disappointing experience
These colors just don't mesh together at all. I don't know what the people responsible for this series were thinking in putting all of these colors together, particularly in the order in which they came out. The MKAL product is absolutely horrific. I've actually started to dread my subscription coming each month and wish I hadn't wasted so much money on this adventure. I really needed a cancel option! Maybe there was one, but I couldn't find it.
