I've included some top knitting tips for beginners, along with advice, projects and reviews for more advanced knitters. I hope you find the videos useful and that we can inspire you to create something special that you will love!

We try to post new videos every week, so if you love knitting as much as we do, hit the subscribe button and the little bell icon and you'll receive a notification every time we post something new.

    Best knitting tutorial!!! I’ve watched several today and have gotten so frustrated. Wanted to quit but said let me watch one more. And the one more was this one and I got it! It’s the cross of the needles that makes it make more sense to me! Crossing them like a cross instead of like an X. Thank you thank you!!!

    Thank you for this wonderful video! I just started knitting and have been doing lots of practise by just casting on and doing rows of stitches. Undoing them all after a certain point and then starting again. I’ve felt way too overwhelmed at the idea of starting my first pattern. But this is PERFECT! I just started another go today with 48 stitches and came across your wonderful video by the time i was only 5 rows in. And i feel so happy that i can actually turn this into something! Hopefully it will be okay at 48 stitches. But at least i can say that I’ve made something by the time i finish it! 😍 thank you and God bless! 🙏🏼

    I thread the wool with the darning needle while still on knitting needle. I dont remove the knitting needle until 12 stitches are through the darning needle. The legs I did 12 “” long and as an icord and arms 6 “ long as an icord😊.

    Thank you so much for this lovely pattern. Will attempt. I was asked by someone to knit a sheep as she would like to pass on to a friend with the message THE SHEPHERD WILL FIND YOU. HE LOVES YOU AND CARES FOR YOU. So many people suffer from depression and this little sheep will be an encouragement to them!

    I hate to tell you but this is not an accurate way to knit the thumb method - look how loose it is. To do it accurately you need to go into the wool on the thumb and loop it round so that it becomes a firm stitch. This is not meant kindly but hopefully to help you.

  • @dellaillingworth9842
    @dellaillingworth98424 ай бұрын

    Oh Lord! I casted on 34. Somehow, after I did the two after the first row, I ended up with 33 stitches. By the time I got to the next row, I have 32 stitches, 2 knits and 2 pearls before I can move on. 😢 I'm starting again. It's my third time 😞

    You do a great job explaining this cast on method, I think its because of the angle of your camera and how nice and slow you go You mention that this is the magic loop method but this is NOT the magic loop method at all, I think you have a misconception of what magic loop is. And also, with a 1X1 rib, which is a 2 stitch repeat, and is divisible by 2, the stitch count needs to be even. You stated that normally with 1X1 rib, it needs to be an odd number of stitches. As a general rule, 1x1 ribbing needs an even number of stitches, unless a pattern calls for one extra stitch for joining in the round, which I think is maybe what you meant? And at the end, why dont you just use your darning needle to take each stitch off of your needle as you go? I do it all of the time. You don't need to take the stitches off of the needle all at once at all. I think many beginners may lose their stitches doing it your way.

  • @user-th2sq7vu1c

    Do you count the cast-on slip knot as a stitch? If so, then aren't you taking it down from 36 to 35 (I'm doing the bigger size) stitches when you P 2 together in the brim and then the 1x1 pattern breaks when you start the next row? I'm struggling with the brim and it keeps happening at this junction. I bought the written pattern to be sure, but it keeps happening. If you repeat K1 P1 don't you need an even number? Thanks for any suggestions! I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong...

  • @dellaillingworth9842
    @dellaillingworth98424 ай бұрын

    I'm doing the 6-12 month and am struggling. I'm going to do 35 and when I drop the stitch, I'll have 34. Fingers crossed

    Hello, I’ve probably watched 100 or more videos on youtube. This is (& thumb cast on) are the easiest ones I’ve found! Thank you! I am trying to re-teach myself. Your video is the closest thing to the way, my mom tried to teach me (I’m left handed & she’s right) we didn’t get very far. I’m trying to identify the lady’s dialect in this video, she doesn’t say her name (from Celtic knitting designs) ? Whoever you are , you’re fantastic! My mom is from Donegal , we live in Chicago. Anyway, keep making these they’re great! Thank you, Colleen
