5 out of 5 stars Simply Fantastic!!!   January 6, 2009
S. Lowther (UK)

This is a really fantastic dvd!!!!

It's extremely well laid out so that you can find what you're looking for really easily. It covers all the basics you will need to get you knitting and more.

I really liked the section on finishing which shows you how to block, weave in tail ends and how to sew a sweater together.
Nici also shows you how to sew several types of seams correctly which was great!

All in all a great investment!!!



5 out of 5 stars After many past attempts I'm finally knitting!   December 27, 2008

I've tried to learn in the past. My mother had a lot of patience to knit beautifully, but not to teach a less-than-gifted knitter-wanna-be. Over the years I've tried on my own, and always gave up. Now that I'm about to be a grandmother I decided I had to learn and bought this dvd. I've cast on, I've knit about 30 inches of the blanket, I've even corrected several mistakes. My first attempt may not be museum quality, but I'm 4 inches away from finishing and I'm ready to cast off with these clearly explained and demonstrated instructions.

What a shame that she doesn't have any further videos!



5 out of 5 stars YOU WILL LEARN TO KNIT!!   December 26, 2008

I have been undergoing treatment for leukemia and have received many rounds of high dose chemo. During this time my friends tried to teach me how to knit. They bought the supplies, instructional books, and spent hours trying to teach me knitting to no avail. My cognitive function had decreased so much, they might as well have been teaching me rocket science. Then I bought this DVD. Even though I was temporarily mentally and cognitavely impaired, I was able to understand the instructions and actually begin and finish a small project (scarf). The instructions are very slow and detailed. Thank you Nici McNally for helping me knit even when I couldn't read. :-)


5 out of 5 stars Excellent DVD! Very Happy!   November 9, 2008

I tried the books and I tried the YouTube instructional videoes, but I still couldn't knit. Four and a half minutes into this DVD and I can do the knit stitch and the purl stitch! The DVD is set up extremely well. It's very easy to repeat a step so you can see the demonstration again. Nici McNally is very easy to listen to and follow. If you want to learn to knit, you want this DVD!
