What is a Knitting Project Tutorial?

Knit and Create with Confidence

The project tutorials offer you the opportunity to make your first wearable, giftable knitting project whether that be a Headband, Beanie Hat or Sock with confidence. Every step is clearly and calmly explained and fully demonstrated by me, your encouraging knitting teacher.

Each knitting project tutorial comes with a downloadable PDF of the pattern and lifetime access, so you can make as many items as you choose, all with the confidence of having a knitting teacher in your pocket anytime you want a reminder or assurance of a technique or stage.

I offer 3 different project tutorials, all designed especially for beginner knitters, see below to learn about each of them.

Start with one and then knit them all!

Beginner Project Level 1

The Chunky Headband

A perfect complete beginner knitting project, wearable and gift worthy and demonstrated step by step from start to finish

The Chunky Headband Tutorial will result in something you will feel proud to wear, or gift-wrap and deliver to a loved one!

Together we will cast on (start) before you then choose between two different stitch patterns, every step demonstrated with clarity and ease.

We will then cast off (finish) together and sew the ends to create that beautiful turban style knot. The project comes with a PDF of the knitting pattern so you can follow along easily and knit as many headbands, in both stitch patterns, as you desire.

The Beanie Hat: 3 Ways

Beginner Project Level 2

Ready to take your knitting from scarves, cushion covers and blankets and gain some new knitting skills? The Beanie Hat is the project tutorial to do just that. Knit your own wearable and gift worthy beanie, in any of the 3 colour-ways demonstrated.

Together we will cast on (start), knit a cosy cuff, learn to knit in the round before then shaping that crown and finally casting off and weaving our ends in together with ease.

All Knit-A-Longs come with a downloadable PDF of the knitting pattern so you can follow along easily and knit as many beanies, in as many different colour combos, as you choose!

Intermediate Project Level 1

The Beginner’s Sock Knitting Tutorial

Socks are often considered too complex a knitting project for beginners but I am here to show you, step by step, how magical and addictive they are to knit.

With every step clearly demonstrated from cast on (start) to cuff, leg, heel, gusset, foot and toe - together we will demystify sock knitting so you can make as many as you choose .

All Knit-A-Longs come with a downloadable PDF of the knitting pattern so you can follow along easily and with lifetime access to the Knit-A-Long you can knit socks with support anytime you wish.
