About Annie's Kit Clubs

Annie’s Kit Clubs are the subscription arm of Annie’s, a craft publisher that has been trading since 1975 and files with the Better Business Bureau as Annie’s Publishing LLC, also listed as Annie’s Attic. The business runs from Big Sandy, Texas, with a long-established second site at Berne, Indiana.

The publishing side came first and still shapes the product. Annie’s has spent five decades producing crochet and quilting patterns, magazines and instructional material, and the kit clubs are essentially that expertise packaged with the materials needed to follow it.

Products & Services

  • Hook & Needle Kit Club: a yarn project each month with both crochet and knit patterns
  • Crochet Collectibles, Caring Crochet and several afghan clubs: ongoing crochet projects
  • Simply Beads Kit Club: beading projects with findings and instructions
  • Quilt clubs, including Holiday Quilters and block-of-the-month formats
  • Young Woodworkers Kit Club: children’s woodworking kits
  • Creative Woman and general craft clubs: mixed-discipline projects
  • Pattern and magazine subscriptions: the publishing business the clubs grew out of

What Sets Them Apart

Instruction quality is the genuine strength. Kits arrive with patterns written by a publisher that has produced them professionally for fifty years, frequently in more than one format, and supported by video tutorials. For a beginner working alone, that is worth more than the materials.

Breadth is the other advantage. Few craft subscriptions cover crochet, knitting, quilting, beading and children’s woodworking under one roof, and the clubs are sold separately rather than as one rotating box, so subscribers choose a discipline rather than accepting whatever arrives.

A Note on Recent Service Problems

The company migrated to a new digital platform in 2025, and its independent record since then is poor. Its Better Business Bureau file shows 62 complaints closed in three years, and its Trustpilot profile under the kit clubs domain sits at 1.4. The recurring themes are kits arriving months late or not at all, support that answers with templates, and cancellation requests that go unactioned.

The grades point in opposite directions, and the box page sets out how we weigh them against each other. Anyone considering a club should read that section before subscribing.
