Learn it...

Orderly, yet creative - improvisational and logical. That's crazy lace! Whether you're a rookie knitter ready to tackle her first sweater, or an experienced knitter eager to create your own adventure in lace, you will love my Craftsy class, The Perfect Fit Seamless Crazy Lace Cardigan.

The name says it all: Perfect Fit because I give you a worksheet to transform your measurements into a custom sweater pattern that works for any body style from petite to plus. Seamless because the basic design is a top-down raglan bolero, worked in the round and ready to wear as soon as it comes off the needles. And Crazy Lace because we will have BIG FUN playing with stitch patterns, starting with simple feather and fan and working up to ... whatever!

You'll learn a cool creative approach that teaches you "lace logic" and makes lace knitting fun instead of intimidating. Along the way, you'll pick up great techniques like the crochet cast-on and bind-off, magic loop knitting, shaping with ribbing, and fun details like bell sleeves and buttonholes. Make your sweater short or long, lacy or plain, in fingering weight or bulky yarn, in one pattern or "sampler style."

Once you learn this pattern, you'll want to make it again and again. And once you know crazy lace, you can use it in anything! I can't wait to see what you come up with, so sign up for The Perfect Fit Seamless Crazy Lace Cardigan today!

The class was tremendous. I would take another class from Myra in a minute. She was so good at explaining everything. I just loved the course.

I loved this class. Myra did an awsome job of conveying the step through out the class. She is an excellent teacher and i, also, would love to see what else she could teach. I am currently finishing the second belaro from this class. I can't wait to get it finished the belaro so that I can do the crazy lace sweater.

Myra Wood has set the standard for what a knitting class should be. Every tiny detail that a knitter needs to know is included in the class and is presented in a clear, easy to understand manner. I wish I lived near her so I could attend every class she offered!

Excellent Crazy Lace  May 14, 2012

Loved the class, the short lace bottom sweater is completed and I have worn it a couple of times. The class was presented in a relaxed confident manner, and I feel fortunate to have been able to participate.

The Craftsy classes have been my first experience at online classes and I much prefer them to a live class, I can go at my own pace and if need be watch multiple times. Keep up the good work.

Excellent Great Class  May 14, 2012

The class was very informative and I learned so much. I was so inspired by this method of knitting, that I have knitted both the bolero and the cardigan and am currently knitting a top that I am designing as I go using the top down method and my own lace patterns. Myra is an excellent teacher and I would love to see what else she could teach us.

Am loving this course. I have got my cardigan set up. The instructions are very understandable and Myra in an excellent teacher. Love this format. Have been wanting to work on a top down cardigan for some time and this course and Myra's instructions have given me the courage to begin.

Excellent Fun & engaging.  May 13, 2012

I really enjoyed this on-line class. Unfortunately, I have not yet purchased the materials to "commit" to making one of the sweaters. But now that I have sat thru the video once, I belive that I am ready to do so! Myra explains the construction process clearly and concisely every step of the way; and the graphics & displays also help to understand each section. I look forward to making this sweater, and who knows maybe one day designing one of my very own. Thanks Craftsy for a fun class. ...

Excellent The Joy of Learning Crazy Lace!  May 12, 2012

Floree

This is a wonderful way to travel through knit information. I have been doing it each evening after work and found it so much fun to learn I could hardly wait. With eyelids drooping I would sadly turn it off only to return happily the next day full of expectation.
The information was presented in an orderly logical fashion which made reviewing so very easy. There was a lot to process and I will continue to refer back as I make Crazy Lace Sweaters.
Thank you so much. I hope Myra you ...

Excellent Awesome teaching and very helpful!  May 10, 2012

Myra Wood is an excellent teacher! This class was very informative and detailed without being too complicated or tedious. I have been knitting for only a short time and am still in the practicing stage but after taking this class I feel I have the confidence to attempt a knitted sweater. I would recommend this class to anyone. Thanks Craftsy and Myra Wood!

Myra has a great way of teaching. I have gained more knitting skills and tips from her online class than "live" classes. Well worth the money, thanks Myra.
