    Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I am so keen to keep recording videos, although I had to prioritise my studio re-fit due to Covid. I'm hoping to keep adding ALOT more videos in the near future. Suggestions welcome! Cass =)

    Instructions seem very clear at first but “turning the corner” and making layered rows is not clear - I kept either unwinding my prior row, or dropping stitches at the ends. I am brand new to this, but the camera needs to be MUCH closer to actually see the stitches and individual turns for it to make sense

    Thanks for the feedback! I was new to filming, so zooming in wasn’t a skill I had back then. As for ‘turning the corner’, remember to start on the very first warp end. It will create a little knot on that warp end but the pattern will be clearer from the next warp end. Our brains often struggle to do the reverse direction so be patient and it will just click! Good luck!

    Hi and thanks for your comment. This was one of my first attempts at filming videos, so hadn’t yet cracked the best distance. But will keep your feedback in mind for the next one!
