    Really useful video! I'm definitely going to refer to it later if (when...) I get into knitting.

    I think I mentioned this in a comment last night, but I'm gonna try loom knitting first. I'm definitely intimated by using the needles & patterns! I feel like I'd follow charts more easily, since I'm a visual learner, but life can surprise you 😅

    I strongly dislike charts, and have been hugely frustrated and struggling with a cable-knit scarf pattern that is only charted, just this past week or two, but thanks to your video, I think I’m finally equipped to properly transcribe it to a written pattern. Perfect timing! Thank you!

      Oh that's brilliant! Really happy to help. This is the thing, everyone's got their preference but if you can at least *understand* the other one, you can work with it in some way

    As a non knitter and just a cross stitcher these patterns seem crazy!

    Thank you for a very informative video! I tried to learn to knit years ago but never picked it up. I am looking forward to a crochet video along the same lines. Will surely have questions then🙂

    Ahhhh, you have the exact same model of Bernina as me. I have never seen anyone else with an Activa 140. Cool!

    It was an amazing explanation of chart patterns, for the first time I have courage to try to follow one. 😅

    Would definitely like a crochet version please. Not that I've tried to read a pattern yet.

    Do you do knit intarsia knitting I need help😂

      Have to be honest, I've only done intarsia a couple of times so am by no means an expert. There are plenty of great videos out there though from people way more knowledgeable than me. Sorry I can't be more help! 😅

    I have been knitting awhile and patterns can still throw an “ old timer” off……..pattern work can still be a bit sticky at times and so appreciate when they give both written and a visual……the ability to visualize the look of the work reminder is also helpful……before I forget …Do You by chance follow KoolKookyKreatures…….her archive of different projects/ works reminds of your eclectic style!

      I don't but will have to check her out. "Eclectic" is certainly me, haha! And yeah I love when patterns give both options, especially sometimes things can be a bit more ambiguous in written form so having a chart or other visual to check against is really useful.
