Frequently asked questions
Short answers to the questions we get asked most.
Orders and delivery
When will I get my kit?
Delivery takes 7 to 10 days after your order. The estimated dates are shown on the product page and in your cart. We email you the tracking number as soon as your parcel ships.
What's the Christmas deadline?
Delivery takes 7 to 10 days. To be sure it's under the tree, order by 28 November.
Can I give it as a gift?
Of course. It's a lovely gift for someone who wants to give it a try. And if you make the character yourself, you can give the finished piece.
The kit and crochet
I've never crocheted. Is it really for me?
Yes. The kits are made for complete beginners: we start from zero, from how to hold the hook to the very last stitch.
No talent needed, just the wish to try.
Can I follow the video easily?
Yes. Every step is filmed slowly and up close, so you can follow the hands. Pause and rewind as many times as you like.
How long does it take?
It depends on the model and your pace. “First steps” kits are the quickest: one evening or a few short sessions. “Next level” kits take a little more patience.
I'm left-handed, can I do it?
Yes. Left-handed crochet uses the same moves, mirrored. If part of the video gives you trouble, write to us: we'll help.
Is it suitable for children?
The kits are made for adults and teens. The finished character contains small parts (safety eyes): do not give it to children under 3.
What if I get it wrong?
It happens, and it's fine. In crochet you undo a few stitches and start again: the yarn is easy to rework.
If you get stuck, write to contact@popelote.com. We'll help.
Shipping and returns
How much is shipping?
€4.90 for 1 kit, and free from 2 kits. Every parcel is tracked, with the number sent by email.
Can I change my mind?
Yes. You have 14 days after delivery to change your mind, no reason needed. You can open the kit to check what's inside. All the details are in our shipping and returns policy.
