Love this class!
I absolutely loved this class! Carol Feller explained the process very well through the videos, and gave excellent techniques that may be applied to other sweaters, such as double loop, grafting, blocking, etc. I have spent several months working on the sweater, but I have completed it and love it. Along the way I had questions which I asked of Carol, and she responded very quickly and gave excellent personal help. I highly recommend this class to anyone who is interested in learning cables.
Many tips and tricks
Great class to learn cables and many other trick.
