first knitting project
The best intro class that I found for learning to knit online by far! I crocheted for many years and wanted to expand my fiber skills to knitting but had a hard time finding a clear and easy-to-follow course that taught me SKILLS moreso than how to execute a beginner project. I felt like this course delivered on that.
Vincent created a wonderful class - clear direction and close-up demonstration videos - that also includes skills many would teach outside of a "Knitting 101" class. I'm so glad that I learned to knit in the round from the beginning as most of what I want to create with knitting will require this. I feel that Vincent took the time to teach each element to what's easy for a beginner but also a more polished/learned way of creating or finishing stitches and projects.
I feel like I learned a lot about tension and rhythm, by the end of the project/throughout the process, that has helped me as I've moved on to other projects. My knitting is getting significantly better since this project and I totally credit it to this class and Vincent's teaching.
Most importantly, I'm enjoying knitting as a grounding and meditative practice everyday. In the last couple of weeks, knitting has become a tether and a peaceful practice in my days. Looking forwad to continuing this practice and growing and refining my skills to create more beauty.
