Customer Reviews for Learn Continental Knitting

The camera work was very clear and accurate. I really liked the instructor's style. I would definitely take another class from her. I have done Fair lsle using both hands before, but only in the round. It was the first time I have seen it explained doing it from behind with purl stitches. I have tried Continental Knitting in the past but was never quite sure of achieving even tension with purl stitches. Most knitters seem to hold the tension of the yarn very stretched and tight, which is not natural to me. It was good to see how she held the yarn and it was in a way that I can emulate.

I have actually only watched the first lesson of the class, I am not brave enough yet to do the sweater which is the class project but I have already managed to do a hat using the Continental Knitting stitches in the first lesson...I am now working on a simple Cowl pattern...I love the class and would tell everyone to take this class.

This class is awesome! I am really enjoying it. The instructor is outstanding and the pictures are. Dry good so easy to follow. I am getting excited to knit the projects. Thank you for a great experience and would definitely recommend this video.

I haven't knitted in years and wanted a review when I came across Continental Knitting. I checked out several sites which made it confusing but when I found your class I knew it was the best. Her instructions are clear as is the video. I have no trouble understanding or following directions. Wonderful even for someone 70 yrs old. Next class I take will be Lena's for sure. unless it is a quilting class. lol

Loving the video but I do have a question. I seem to be getting a ridge on my purl rows. Any suggestions?

I thoroughly enjoyed the video. It was very easy to see Lena's manipulation of the knitting needles with the yarn. I have been knitting the English style for over 60 years so I am a little awkward holding my yarn in the continental style and achieving the proper tension. I make sure I practice every day even if it is for only a few minutes and I am beginning to become more comfortable with the knit stitch. I haven't spent too much time with the purl stitch as I want to perfect the knit stitch first. I am confident I will be able to master continental knitting with little stress.

Thank you Craftsy for providing excellent tutorials. I have purchased other videos from you in the past. Love them!

I have watched Lena on TV and love to watch her knit. I knew I had to get this class. She's such a good teacher. I'm finally getting hang of knitting continental.

I loved this video. Lena is such an awesome teacher. I wish she had a video on sock knitting.

I loved the class, but I'm afraid I still have a way to go before I could do an entire project continental style. I finished the sweater the way I usually knit and really like the finished project. But I'm not giving up. I think it's important to keep learning. Thanks for a lovely pattern and a very good class. Lena is a very good teacher.
