You, more than almost any other channel, have done more for my knitting than anyone else!! Thank you!!! I am looking at my work with such pride now, rather than frustration 😅

Ashley I must say you a wonderful Teacher. I just wish you were around when I was teaching. I’m now 83 years old, and learned to knit in School in Scotland age 5 or 6 years old. The first thing we had to knit was a hot water bottle cover, which we needed with no central heating. My wonderful Teacher was a master knitter. Through my younger years I only knitted off and on. I emigrated to Vancouver Canada, and worked in a yarn shop age 20. I was a very natural knitter, and was offered a job to teach knitting at a high School in the evenings. The pay was marvellous. What I would have loved, was to have you teaching by my side, the younger generation. I still think youngsters should be taught in every School, as once you learn, you don’t forget. It’s also the best thing you could learn for many reasons. Keep up the great work of teaching, I’m so proud of you. God Bless . ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇨🇦🥰

🥰 I have found other so-called tutorials, where the knitter tells you what she’s going to do, shows you the finished product, and mostly talks her way through the beginning of the procedure, and then shows you the end of it in each section, which is really no help for me. You are actually sitting here knitting every stitch with me. That is what I needed. Ok, NOW I’M DOING IT!

Tremendously helpful for a beginner, knitting 1st sweater in the round, for the very 1st time. Your step by step tutorial is excellent!! Because of this alone, I now believe it will be possible for me to progress with my knitting. I would also like to mention that I am partially sighted, and the way you have zoomed in on your work is also extremely helpful, thank you ❤

I just finished this sweater! Have been knitting for years and made sweaters with rectangles. I used a combination of this and the Winter bluff and I changed the sleeves to make a longer cuff. Your detailed videos showing closeups was fantastic! Thanks so much Ashley. I’m on my way to buy yarn for another of your projects!

I am an experienced knitter but never attempted a 'top-down' pattern until now. As a left-handed knitter I find it difficult sometimes to follow pattern instructions. I am halfway down the torso using your Simple Raglan Sweater pattern and can barely contain my excitement!! As a matter of fact, I woke up at 3 a.m. and after coffee, was compelled to start click-clacking away at my chestnut brown sweater. Thanks for the free pattern, Ashley! I am already planning my next sweater!!

Just finished this sweater tonight, my first thanks to your easy to follow pattern and tutorial. I've already bought yarn for the Waterside sweater, can't wait to start. It's a nice break from knitting socks. Keep them coming.

Hi Ashley, I just wanted to give you a huge thanks for making this tutorial accessible because I started my crafting journey with knitting and found it so intimidating that I took on crocheting instead. A year and a half later, I really wanted to have a knit sweater for winter and wow, this is the friendliest approach I've seen. Thank you SO much, I'm just about to start the first sleeve and it looks wonderful.

So I finished my body yesterday and started working the first sleeve so I’m on the home stretch. I would consider myself a beginner knitter and I can say this whole experience of this tutorial and the instructions are absolutely perfect for a beginner. I’ve primarily made hats and a few simple socks and wanted to tackle a sweater. Ashley did a wonderful job with this, providing easy to understand step by step instructions. I started this on Friday and I’ll have it done in under a week. So thank you for showing us this pattern and going into the details, this is a true gem and I look forward to working more of your patterns!

I've been wanting to knit my first ever jumper for absolutely ages now but not found a video that was complete beginner friendly. I never thought I could do it and now I have thanks to your wonderful clear teaching. Not perfect but better than I ever thought I would manage! Thank you!

Literally the best video I’ve watched on making a simple beginner sweater. I’ve watched a ton of videos, and some are just so experienced, that they forget important small steps for us beginners trying to branch out to other projects. Even the raglan increases made the most sense, you described exactly where to put your stitches, where to increase, and that is where I always had issues with, because I didn’t know where to put my markers! You’re amazing thank you.

I wonna to thank you so much. This tutorial is so great. I almost finished my first top down sweater and it looks very good. Even the wide sleeves are not too big or too much fabric in the armpit. Really a perfect instruction and sweater design.

Absolutely love this tutorial. Thankyou for taking so much care explaining this and writing the pattern. I can't wait to choose some yarn and make this. Xx

Loved the way you taught this beautiful and easy sweater. I always wanted to learn Raglan too to bottom and loved the way you made it easy for me. ❤

This is such a good tutorial. I was so nervous about attempting a top down jumper but this has just exploded the myth! Thankyou so much, I’ll definitely be making this.
