importing symbolset icons into sketch

I purchased some Symbolset icons, as recommended by Sarah Parmenter in the ios design videos. But cant figure out how she got them into sketch. I assume she imported the SVG file, but my SVG file that came with my download appears blank. Anyone else have any issues? Ive looked at the XML and there is a lot of code there with <glyph> tags but it appears blank in illustrator, sketch, etc.

edit: I figured it out. The link in the teachers notes takes you to here but the icons you really want (and the ones she shows in the videos are actually from Symbolicons. This download contains PNG's AI, PSD, and SVG files. They are also only $29 compared to the $40 on symbol set for the open font/SVG files.

Someone needs to fix that link in the teachers notes, im out 40 bucks if I cant get this SVG file working.

I'm not using Symbolset in the tutorial, I'm using Symbolicons. These come as .EPS files which can be imported into Sketch.

yeah I figured that out eventually, however your link initially went to symbolset, but it looks like its been fixed now and correctly links to symbolicons
