Crochet School/Knitting School

School is now in session!  Look for my Crochet and Knitting School videos on YouTube!  I post under the user name Mommaflick09.

I am using YouTube as a teaching medium for those who want to learn how to crochet/knit and how to read patterns that relate to the stitches used.  This "school" material will cover basic techniques as well as more advanced ones as well.

The first video is up on YouTube now and goes over the crocheted chain stitch and how to read the stitch in written patterns and charted patterns as well.  Please check it out here.

If you would like to see something specific taped and reviewed, please leave me a comment and let me know!  I would love your input and feedback!  Thank you!

Until next time, keep those needles and hooks busy!

Knitting Video

I posted a knitting video yesterday on YouTube on how to make tighter 1x1 ribbing when knitting Continental style.  In this video, I show you a sample of the loose way of doing the ribbing and the "new", tighter way.

I plan on doing a series of videos on how to read crochet and knitting patterns in the future as well as videos and how to's on simple and advanced knitting and crochet techniques.  If you have something in particular you would like to see as a video, please leave me a comment or send me an email.  I would be happy to take requests!

You can find the new Tight 1x1 Ribbing video here.

Until next time, keep those needles and hooks busy :)
