Your guide to learn how to craft, using our videos.

We have a huge range of tutorial videos that can help you along your learning journey, but it can seem overwhelming if you are not familiar with terminologies or skill names. So here's a guide I have put together, to show you which videos showcase the basics that are must-know before your delve into each craft further:

Essential videos for Knitting:

Here you will find a list of videos that show you how to start a project (Cast on), how to create the stitches (How to knit and how to purl) and how to finish a project (Cast off). Knowing these skills will already allow you to complete a huge variety of our kits, like our Grazier Scarf, Hana Short Cardigan and Luca Pom Hat.

 

Essential videos for Crocheting:

Here you will find a list of videos that show you how to start a project (Foundation chain) and how to create different stitches (US: single crochet/UK: double crochet, US: double crochet/UK: treble crochet). Knowing these skills will already allow you to complete a huge variety of our kits, like our Avery Crochet Hat, Phoenix Easy Scarf and Nonna Throw.

 

Once you are more confident, have a look at all other stitches and skills we have for knit and crochet. If you have more questions, just drop us an email on hello@stitchandstory.com and we will be happy to help work through any issues you have!
