Helpful and Fun

"This is a FABULOUS and fun how-to-knit DVD for beginners and more advanced young knitters alike. The host, Chelsea Povall, is warm, informed, and engaging. In addition to the basics, it covers various aspects of knitting such as picking up dropped stitches and felting. The viewer can easily jump around on the DVD to any section. It's focused on encouraging young people that knitting is constructive, creative, and cool! Nicely done. I'll be giving several of these out at the holidays."
The Best Knitting Video!

"This is by far the best video that teaches knitting--for all ages (I haven't been a teen for a very long time! I do have teenage children though). The instructor is great, the lighting is great, and the camera angle is over the RIGHT shoulder, not the left. For some reason, seeing it over the right shoulder makes it much easier for me to learn. Approximately the first half of this video can be viewed on Youtube which is what convinced me to buy it. I rarely write reviews for anything but really wanted to promote this video in hopes that they'll come out with Volume II."

"Although I am more than a decade past the teen years, I am a brand new knitter and decided to give the DVD a try. It is very well done, with simple instructions and great demonstrations. The dialogue can be a bit much at times, but it's also pretty cute and takes me back to when I was a youngster. Definitely recommended if you are a beginner student of knitting."
