    I'm completely new to crocheting and this class was extremely helpful. It was concise and thorough at the same time. I feel confident that I can complete the sample projects included in the course and I can't wait to get started!

    Vickie did a great job explaining all the lessons, but sadly, when it came time to show the end of a row stitch or where to start the next row, the camera angles were poorly placed and unable to see critical stitches on every lesson, making it impossible to see what was happening. It would be wonderful if they could re film critical points with close up of the stitches and maybe overhead close up views of her actively working stitches as well.

    Great course for beginners such as myself. But camera angle is in a poor place. You cannot see where she is going into with crochet hook and that is most important.

  • CJ H. Aug 23, 2017

    The camera angle from the side makes it difficult to see exactly what she is doing. For example, inserting hook in 2nd chain from the hook, all one can see are her hands and not the hook.

    Excellent presentation by the instructor. Clear, concise and perfect for a beginning crocheter. Informative tips and tricks. Vickie is a sparkler! Check out her knitting course too, it's equally well done.
