I went into this course having never held a pair of knitting needles seriously, just some half-finished dishcloths from years ago. What won me over was how methodically it builds up, starting with tension and casting on before moving into shaping and finally sleeves. The section on modern yarn choices was eye opening, since I always assumed acrylic and wool were basically interchangeable and now I know better. Watching the close-up hand shots made techniques like the long-tail cast on finally click for me instead of just reading a diagram. I finished the course with an actual wearable sweater, and honestly the fit surprised me the most.
Ich habe schon lange mit Stricken geliebäugelt, aber ein ganzer Pullover erschien mir immer zu kompliziert. Dieser Kurs nimmt einem die Angst, weil jede Technik einzeln und in Nahaufnahme gezeigt wird, von der ersten Masche bis zum Abketten. Besonders hilfreich fand ich den Teil über moderne Garne, denn ich hatte vorher keine Ahnung, welche Wolle sich für welches Projekt eignet. Das Tempo ist angenehm ruhig, man kann jederzeit zurückspulen und eine Passage noch einmal ansehen. Am Ende hatte ich tatsächlich meinen ersten selbstgestrickten Pullover in den Händen, und er passt sogar.
Ik dacht altijd dat een trui breien veel te moeilijk was voor een beginner, maar deze cursus bewijst het tegendeel. De uitleg over verschillende soorten garen en welke naald daarbij past was precies wat ik nodig had. Aan het einde had ik mijn eerste zelfgebreide trui in handen en die zit echt goed.
Kelas ini benar-benar dari nol, cocok buat saya yang belum pernah pegang jarum rajut sama sekali. Penjelasan soal memilih benang sesuai proyek bikin saya nggak salah beli lagi. Rasanya puas banget waktu sweater pertama akhirnya selesai dan bentuknya rapi.
Curso muito claro, explicando desde os pontos básicos até a escolha certa da lã, e terminei fazendo meu primeiro suéter com bastante orgulho.
Saya pemula total tapi kelas ini bikin saya berani mulai bikin sweater sendiri. Penjelasan tentang jenis benang dan cara pegang jarum sangat detail dan gampang diikuti. Sekarang sweater pertama saya sudah jadi dan hasilnya rapi banget.
Ich konnte vorher gerade so eine Masche anschlagen und habe jetzt tatsächlich meinen ersten Pullover fertig. Die Erklärungen zu den Grundtechniken und besonders zum Lesen der schriftlichen Anleitungen waren so verständlich, dass ich nie hängen geblieben bin. Auch der Teil über moderne Garne hat mir geholfen, die richtige Wolle für das Projekt auszuwählen. Das Stück sitzt sogar richtig gut. Ich bin unglaublich stolz und stricke schon am nächsten.
Great intro to yarn weights and needle sizes, just wanted a closer look at blocking near the end.
I've knitted scarves before but never trusted myself with a full sweater until this class. The lessons on reading a yarn label and picking the right weight for your gauge finally made sense to me. By the end I had a finished sweater that actually fits, which felt like a small miracle.
Clear step-by-step teaching that finally made increases and decreases make sense, and I actually finished a wearable sweater by the end.
Давно хотела связать свитер, но боялась взяться за спицы всерьез — этот курс объяснил всё по шагам, от набора петель до выбора пряжи по толщине. Особенно понравилось, что показывают крупным планом, как держать нити для ровного полотна. К концу курса я довязала свой первый свитер, и он реально сидит как надо.
Solid basics, sleeves felt a little rushed.
Mình chưa từng đan gì phức tạp hơn khăn quàng cổ nên hơi lo khi đăng ký khóa này. Nhưng các bài học đi rất chậm rãi, từ cách lên mũi đến cách chọn len phù hợp với size kim, nên mình theo kịp ngay. Phần giải thích về các loại sợi len hiện đại cũng rất hữu ích vì trước giờ mình chỉ mua đại theo cảm tính. Chỉ tiếc là phần ráp tay áo hơi nhanh, phải xem lại vài lần mới hiểu rõ. Nhìn chung đây là một khóa học nền tảng rất đáng để bắt đầu, và mình đã hoàn thành chiếc áo len đầu tiên trong đời.
Lần đầu tôi đan xong một chiếc áo nhờ hướng dẫn đọc chart rõ ràng, chỉ tiếc phần chọn len hơi ngắn.
Really clear breakdown of increases and decreases, though I wish there was a bit more time spent on picking up sleeve stitches.
