Needlework Videos.
Crochet and knitting.

Needlework videos are for those who consider that it is better one time to watch instead of reading books or just listening to some one's explanation. There is well known statistics that the majority of people are the visual learners. This page is for us - for the majority :).

I've selected HOW-TO-VIDEOS about two kinds of needlework : crochet and knitting. This way you can watch and learn the process of crocheting or knitting step by step. The page will grow in time and new videos are going to be added.

The natural way to learn crocheting is to take some small project, like Granny's square for example, and follow it one step at a time. This way understanding of all those "miracles" like single crochets, slip stitches, slip knots, and so on comes very quickly.

There will be a few groups of crochet videos in our video library:

• Basic crocheting stitches: a slip knot, a chain stitch, a single crochet, a double crochet, a half-double crochet, a treble crochet .
• Crocheting Granny Square: chain, 1st row, 2nd row, connecting squares together.
• Picot Stitch: how to make it look neat.
• Crab Stitch: reverse Single Crochet.
• Bullion Stitch: how to crochet it.

• Cluster Stitch: family of cluster stitches.

• Crochet-in-the Round. A single and double crochet circle.

There are two groups of videos in this part:

1.For the beginners.

Here is a good news for you. There are only 2 stitches in knitting: the KNIT (K) stitch and the PURL (P) stitch . Once your are familiar with them, it is quite enough to make your own projects: scarfs, blankets, shawls, and so on.

Besides that, you have to know how to start (to CAST-ON ) your project, and how to finish (to BIND-OFF ) it.

Each Knitting Video for the very beginners step-by-step will teach you these basic techniques.

• The Knit Stitch: Knit through the back or front loop.
• The Purl Stitch: Two ways to knit it.




2.Advanced Knitting.

Once you have learned basic techniques, more advanced techniques will teach you how to shape a more complicated projects:

• Increase a Stitch: three methods to increase a stitch in your knitting.
• Decrease a Stitch: how to decrease a stitch in a knit and a purl row.
• Knit a Cable: Right-handed and left-handed knitting.
• Circular Knitting: There are two ways of circular knitting.
