In this online knitting course you will learn how to knit in the round with 4 separate stitch patterns; then knit step by step with me to make a knit sampler stitch cowl (every single stitch and round are shown in the videos so you can knit along with me!) And there are a few lessons on fixing mistakes in the troubleshooting section, too.
