This course is excellent! I’ve been wanting to switch to continental knitting since discovering its speed and ease over 20 years ago. I tried to do the conversion without any formal instruction but never got good enough or sure enough of myself, so I’d revert back to being a “thrower” every time. Lorilee’s class has definitely cemented the new hand positions so I’m sure I won’t be tempted to go back. I’ve recommended this class to every knitter I know! Thanks so much for a great class in a great platform. I’ve knitted the English way for the first 50 years of my life, and will now knit the Continental way for the next 50.

I loved the different patterns in this class. I’ve been knitting for a few years on and off, but haven’t really ventured out with different stitches. This was the perfect way to improve my knitting skills. The hardest part was figuring out what colors to use and how I wanted to work them in, but after finishing, I feel like you can hardly go wrong however you put things together. It was so fun to start a new section and see how the stitch developed. Before the stitch becomes tedious, it’s time to learn something new. Lorilee is very clear in her online instructions and I was able to easily figure everything out. She also gives some great hints on handling your yarns during work. This is a class I will likely go back to as I start different classes.

For some reason, Magic Loop always mystified me. I’d read instructions in various sources about how to do it, but could never get the hang of it.

Given that I’ve been knitting for ~20 years, I would have been able to skip over the first two sections of the class. But I didn’t because the delivery of the class is so good, and well thought out.

After taking this class, I was able to do something I never thought possible: two socks at once, doing Magic Loop. I look forward to taking my next class with Lorilee.

What shocked me was that anyone could create a class based on this cast on. Maybe only Lorilee could do this? What amazed me was how fantastic the class was. I have done this cast on several times for toe up socks and was absolutely mind blown several places in the class. If all you have used this cast on for is toe up socks; prepare to be taken outside of your box and into Lorilee’s lush and wonderful world with several new applications ranging from the simple to some fairly advanced. Time and money well spent.
