    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Understanding that you need to ‘knit off’ from the knit side and ‘purl off’ from the purl is a game changer!

    Watching you do the Kitchener stitch made so much sense!! So much easier. A million thank yous. My socks have looked nice until I look at the end of the toe. Yikes! So glad they were hidden in the shoe. Your tutorials are the best. Thank you for not speaking to fast! I am deaf, I can understand you with heavy hearing aids.
