Sheep & Stitch is a freshly-launched website that teaches you how to knit using video tutorials and simple patterns. I don't know how to knit, but if I wanted to learn, I think I'd start here. The site is clean and pretty with lovely, cohesive photography and a simple layout. Follow the knitting map to go from a person who knows nothing (me) to a person who can make a sweater. More patterns, videos, and goodies are coming soon, so sign up for the newsletter if you want to be alerted. I love how-to sites, and this looks like it'll be a good one.
It's a lovely design. Though not as pretty, http://www.knittinghelp.com/ has a much more comprehensive set of knitting videos. Personally, these days, YouTube is my go-to for learning knit and crochet techniques.
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! I know how to crochet but love the look of knitted items.

I've seen so many cool knitted things online lately... sorta makes me wish I knew how. If there were only an app that would add hours to my day. :)

ReplyDeleteIf you need a nudge to learn how to knit, the Purl Bee blog was what inspired me to finally pick up a pair of needles. Their colors and designs are my favorite!

ReplyDeleteThis looks awesome! I've been wanting to learn how to knit forever so I'll definitely check this out. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI already know how to knit, but just for snits & giggles, I watched the videos. They are by far much more concise and easier to understand than any others I've seen.
ReplyDeleteYou should try it...it's very relaxing.
