[@kaylynnsueee9081]

For a person with adhd & a learning disability brain this tutorial was so helpful & I understood it so fast. The repetition & slow pace & an image of what you’re doing over & over helps a lot to learn in no time. Crocheting is so hard I gave up on it I couldn’t understand it or pick it up so I’m trying knitting & everyone says knitting is harder but this looks so much easier!!

[@lovecraftscom]

This is such great feedback! Thank you so much for sharing this with us and Happy making ❤️🥰

[@tk7105]

It’s been really hard trying to improve my knitting after years of vigorous crochet. Getting a hang of it is a slow process and I keep returning to my crocheting hook out of sheer frustration. That being said, your tutorial is incredibly helpful and you sound so encouraging that it makes me feel better about myself just a tad bit more

[@alwaysreadin163]

Have you been able to learn it? I've been trying on and off and at this point I think I'm donating my knitting needles 😭 I can barely get two stitches and they're always so tight

[@alwaysreadin163]

OH MY GOSH I WAS SO STUPID I THOUGHT THAT THE WORK WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ON BOTH NEEDLES AT ALL TIMES that was my issue 😂

[@glacialimpala]

@@alwaysreadin163 I still don't know why we can't use some very long crochet needles, like the hook is SO helpful, why make a pointed end instead? The tension is always wrong and it slips

[@alwaysreadin163]

@@glacialimpala true that! Isn't there a type of crochet that has a lot of loops on the hook at once? I think it's called Tunisian crochet, I've seen it floating around pinterest a lot. I usually have natural nails that are on the longer side (ie a bit over my finger tip) and I usually have to use my nail so I definitely second the hook thing lol

[@vals3465]

Just keep going in spite of the mistakes. I'm finding it easier as I just keep doing it and not trying to be perfect. I still prefer crochet but my wrist hurts if I do too much, so knitting will be an alternative.

[@kacie7777]

i’ve been struggling a lot with my anxiety and depression for years and have decided to take up a hobby and knitting has always always tooken an interest in me. i’ve always been drawn to it in a way. and this time i’m taking some action into learning. and here i am watching this video on repeat hoping i can catch on and once i’ve caught on and learnt my plan is to get the yarn & needle & practice and practice then hopefully start my own business once i’m good enough.

[@justjoe7081]

Knitting and crocheting have been difficult especially to find videos that have clear and concise instructions with a demonstration. This is definitely the best video I’ve seen.

Thank you SO MUCH! I’m just learning to knit at 34. Have never picked up so much as a needle or yarn and was becoming a bit frustrated with some of the KZbin tutorials I was coming across. However, the way you explain things in a way a newbie can understand and repeat the motions is so helpful! I learned more watching 15 minutes of your video than I had in 2 hours fumbling through others!

Ma'am, you have taught today a fellow lady how to knit. Few hours in and I'm so in love with this craft like I was never before with any other and I do know a lot of things - from making ceramics to sewing most difficult fabrics. But knitting is truly something else - the peacefulness, the repetition, the zen. Oh my goddesses, I do honestly feel how anxiety leaves my body. Many thanks from bottom of my heart!

[@afshanhusain3238]

You taught me how to knit today! ❤️ I was told by my son’s school - today - that for his online (we just started last week) handwork class the only way for him to learn knitting (which imbibes so many skills for a 7 year old) was if I learnt how to knit and then taught him - as online handwork for little children is an oxymoron - as one needs the teacher by ones side. I was in a panic because knitting has never been a part of my world - embroidery, yes but never knitting. You managed to teach this to me......and online too! Thank you! ❤️

Thank you for a superb instruction on how to knit for beginners. My 8 year old granddaughter has taught herself to do a stitch & is begging to learn the whole process. This is by far the best instruction for beginners. Thank you for this clear, easy to understand demonstration! So appreciated!

I like to know what type of wool can be used thick or thine for starting

[@davideggers4476]

I can not be the only one who physically can not get what he's doing, because it should be like looping around, I be like, ok, loops around, and then it will completely fail, I've been tryingfor an hour, I can not seem to get hang of this how

Wonderful! Learning to knit at 62 as it has been something I always wanted to learn. Have done crewel and embroidery so struggling with working with big needles! Feel quite clumsy! Your instructions are super! Your voice….. tone, speed, etc are perfect! Thank you!

[@lovecraftscom]

This is such great feedback- thank you so much ❤️

[@FlyPiggie]

Seriously the easiest video to follow along. I want YOU to explain perl and other stitches because I can't grasp it. Even the other videos on this channel aren't as easy to follow as this woman!

[@wendystewart1770]

She is absolutely wonderful, she takes her time and makes it easy to follow.

Thanks so much for your kind comment 🧡

Was having trouble trying to crochet, so I switched to knitting. Used bamboo chopsticks as needles. Knitting's easier than crocheting. I'm glad. Thank you for this tutorial, madam!

You are so welcome! Happy making 🥰✨

I cannot praise this video enough! I have tried to learn to knit several times and it never stuck. This video helped me actually learn and I'm so appreciative!

[@lovecraftscom]

This makes us so happy- yay🥰

I have always wanted to learn how to knit as my mum shared stories from her childhood of my nan knitting winter clothing for them. So here I am at 32 finally knitting all thanks to you! Your tutorial was so easy to understand and so much fun. Great teaching skills and I'm going to start on my scarf! You were right I was dreaming about the stitching technique 😅

[@lovecraftscom]

haha amazing- so happy you enjoyed it! Happy making 🧡😍

[@alesiaromero5583]

So, I've watched SOOOOOO many videos on how to knit, I think that this lady is THE BEST. I find it's very easy to understand and follow the instructions!! 💞 I have a 2 year old grandson and I think my first project will be a scarf for him lol! He's 2,so he won't care!!

Beautiful...jumpstarted the memory buried deep in the subconscious wow! Great tutorial

[@BambiJay96]

I was really wanting to learn how to knit from my granma, but she passed away about a month ago before we had the chance to sit down and knit together. This has been a very straight forward and easy tutorial to learn from and even learning has made me feel closer to my granma and I hope she is proud that I have learnt. Thank you so much for this I appreciate this video immensely ❤

[@lovecraftscom]

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. This is very special!🧡

I am 7 and started two days ago. Thanks to Lovecrafts I was able to improve

[@nicoled314]

I am a long time crocheter and have tried to learn to knit so many times over the years but could just never get the hang of it so I would give up and go back to my crochet hook. I decided to give knitting one more go and try a new KZbin teacher, found this video, got my supplies and FINALLY it has clicked! I am so excited! Thank you!

Explanation is simple that a beginner can easily understood
