I'd bought yarn three separate times over the years and never gotten past a tangled mess, so I went in skeptical. The way each stitch was broken down, slowly showing both the knit and purl from different angles, made everything finally make sense. By the end of the first week I'd knit a proper dishcloth, and now I'm halfway through a baby blanket for my niece. The section on reading a simple pattern was the part I valued most because it unlocked so many projects. Honestly the most encouraging crafting course I've taken.

Casting on and the basic chain stitch finally clicked for me after years of giving up. My first granny square came out a bit wonky, but the troubleshooting tips helped me fix my tension. A lovely, patient start for total beginners.
