I can't get rid of these people. Do not sign up or you will be hounded for the rest of your life, constantly, with their texts and emails. I belonged to the Fat Quarter club for a short time a couple years ago and cancelled my membership. I still get at least five or six emails and text message DAILY. I have asked them to stop, deleted all messages, deleted and listed as junk mail. unsuscribed, written to them and they still won't stop. It is to the point of harassment. I need to have my phone on the business and family reasons and I am constantly interrupted by messages from Annie's. I just want them to go away and they won't. Take it from me, don't get started because you will never, ever, get rid of them.

They keep sending me wrong instructions…
They keep sending me wrong instructions or wrong color yarn. I love the completed projects, but I’m done. I’m tired of waiting for the right items to complete my project.

Do not order from Annie's
Do not order from Annie's. I ordered a subscription for the monthly crochet kit. They only sent one. I thought I did something wrong so I ordered the subscription again. They sent one kit but they charged my credit two times for that one kit. Called customer service for a credit. The reps did not understand English and they were not helpful. The first person disconnected the call. Will never do business with them again. Bad results from start to finish! BEWARE!

Customer Service Non-Existent
I hate to have to leave a negative review as I really think the pattern for the afghan is beautiful and the video instructions are excellent, however, the customer service is so awful it takes away from all of that.
Since the beginning of the project, I had issues. The first kit was shipped to me and was missing one of the skeins I needed to begin my project, and also included the wrong instructions. When I called, they said I would need to wait an additional 2 weeks to get the replacement material, so my project started off delayed.
As the project went on I had additional issues. when it came time for Kit #6 to have shipped, it never did. I called customer service and they said "they don't know why it didn't ship" and they gave me a different number to call. I called that number and they checked the inventory on the yarn and said it was in fact in stock, and they didn't know why it didn't ship. So of course I said ok, well if it is in stock can you please go ahead and ship that. "Oh we can't do that unfortunately" Apparently their customer service does not have the authority to ship items to customers.....So they told me they would have to email their supervisor and that someone would get back to me.
Days went by and no one got back to me, so I called again. This time a new customer service rep answered and and told me essentially the same thing, I can see you called, it looks like they emailed their supervisor but there has been no response, I also don't know why it hasn't shipped, I will email my supervisor also.
At this point the shipment has been delayed several weeks and as a result my project has been halted. I'm upset, but what can I do their customer service reps apparently don't have the authority to service their customers and they have no way of allowing a customer to speak with the supervisor, so again I wait. Days go by and again no one contacts me. So I call a third time, this time I am told the one of the supervisors emailed back to customer service (which was never relayed back to me) that the kits would be shipping at some point this week. Again no explanation for the delay, no expedited shipping, no updates, no communication. It has been another several days and according to my account the kit has still not shipped. I can understand that delays might happen, but to not communicate that a delay has occurred and to not update customers of a new shipment date, and to have customer service be so useless is unacceptable.

AWFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE
AWFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE
kits are short of yarn - by a lot! Even with careful usage, appropriate guage and short tails.
Then ZERO help to resolve
DO NOT ORDER

I had paused my subscription so I could…
I had paused my subscription so I could catch up before getting the next kit club in the mail. During my account pause, they went ahead and charged my card and sent the kit out to me. Customer service could not give me a reason why this happened. I then sent the kit back, return to sender as they told me to do. I then deleted my subscription because it is just shady to do customers like that. It has been over a month since I returned the kit to them and now they are not responding to my emails about when I can expect a refund. Terrible company and terrible customer service.

Customer service is truly non-existent
Customer service is truly non-existent.
I have a knit club shipment that shows online, in my account as having shipped 1/3/2025, but for some reason it was picked up by USPS 1/6/2025...and it is now 1/20/2025 and I have not received it. Each time I have emailed them, I get the response that it was mailed 1/10/2025. Really? Nothing at all in my account reflects that date, nothing in USPS with that tracking number reflects that date....and it has not progressed through the system since 1/6/2025. So, today I decided to call; and, after sitting on hold for about 5 minutes (each time), I was disconnected (each time)....five times!!!!
The kits are fun to work, but this customer service is pathetic...and I am truly wondering if I'm just being ripped off. I did after all, pay for the item I have not received.

Just problems all around
Just problems all around. Non-existent customer service to answer questions. Delays is shipping with no explanation. Their "anti-pilling premier exclusive" yarn often has spots of breakage and dye from colors not associated with the kit. Written directions are often not the same as the video guides. Overpriced and unoriginal patterns. Just generally disappointing.
