Customer Reviews of Learn To Knit with Laura-Jean
How to have fun knitting I loved the enthusiasm of Laura-Jean as she teaches how to do several beginner's projects. She inspired me to knit a cute sweater for my little dog Abigail. We both love how it turned out. Unlike another reviewer, I was happy to be able to replay sections, or slow down the instruction when I needed to do so. That's the beauty of a DVD. Thanks so much, Laura-Jean, for making knitting so much fun!! I recommend this DVD highly and I am buying some extras to give as Christmas gifts for my friends.
It Can't Just Be Me...Can It: Disappointing DVD at Best
I am surprised at all the four-star ratings on this instructional knitting DVD. For almost $25 I am disappointed in it. I am a new knitter, having taught myself the basic stitches at stitchguide.com and elsewhere on the internet. I wanted to learn more and am a bit challenged when it comes to learning strictly by reading, especially when it comes to something spacially related, like making one long piece of yarn into a garment using two needles.

>I found I had to go to extreme slow stop-motion when watching Laura demonstrating the knit and pearl stitches, almost as if she was a magician performing slight of hand. It should've been very clear, I felt. Also, I still don't know how to knit on circular needles. At no time does Laura bother to tell me in which hand to hold which needle, so that I was stumped until I did again, slooooow stop-motion using my player's remote and to my surprise saw her switch the needles in her hands almost imperceptibly. This is bad when teaching a new knitter...Again, I expected this to be more clear. If I wanted magic, I would've bought something else.

>I also expected to learn what to do when I drop a stitch, and this valuable piece of information is hidden somewhere in the tape, surely. I'm sure I'll find it eventually. In general, I find my basic questions unanswered.

>A pleasant personality for sure, but for truly new knitters I cannot recommend this instructional video, and certainly not for the price, new. I learned as much for free online.
Great for beginner with a little experience
Laura Jean was an excellent speaker and teacher. It was great to see things actually being made and how they were supposed to work. I wish I'd have found this sooner than I did. It makes learning to knit a lot easier than using a book. The books are great as references once you have an idea of what you are doing. I recommend this DVD to anyone who wants to knit but feels like they just can't figure it out. The only disappointment was when she went over how to read a pattern at the end. She didn't actually step by step show you what to do as she explained the pattern. That would have been the icing on the cake.
