Review by Myrna

"I took Patty's "Using Short Rows" class in Seattle. It was the best. She had an excellent handout. She is organized, concise, answered everyone's questi

ons and got through the whole lesson plan without rushing at the end. I would definitely take another class from her. I have taken many knitting classes and she is one of the best. EXCELLENT!!"

Review by Judy

"Patty Lyons ROCKS as a knitting instructor. I have taken most of her online classes through Craftsy, Interweave and Annie's and have learned so much. Th

e thing that I love the most about Patty's style of teaching is that in addition to teaching the technique she also gives you insight into the 'why' of what you are doing which has taken my knitting to a whole new level. Additionally, she is funny and upbeat - it's a joy to laugh along with her and feel like she is right there next to you."

"Kim has such an extensive background and is such a patient teacher! she is great at explaining the basics and getting you comfortable working thru pattern

s. I am so excited to see my progress as I continue lessons with her! She has reinvigorated my desire to knit/crochet and advance my skills! the only downside is having to do the lessons online from Florida! I wish I could take them in person with her!"

Review by Dorothy

"Patty Lyons has taught me more about knitting; (the how & why of stitches; why of mistakes, and tips to correct them) than I have ever learned in a single

little yarn shop instruction! And I love that I can have the "classes" from 'Craftsy', 'Interweave', and "Annie's', online, right in my own home, to watch over and over again if I need my memory refreshed on a technique (such as joining in the round), or stitches (knitting a neat selvage edge). Once a yarn shop owner was explaining how to make sure the long-tail cast on wasn't too tight by placing one's index finger at the stitch; just as I had seen Patty tell us to do in her instructional video. I asked him if he had learned that from Patty Lyons, and he answered, "Yes, I did"! 'And it has saved me from tight cast-ons ever since'! So Patty has helped a lot of people she isn't even aware of helping. Profs to Patty! She's the best!!"

Review by Susan

"I love this way of taking lessons. Youtube doesn't allow for questions and it is SOO helpful to be doing it together and have questions answered immediate

ly!
Kim is wonderful with very clear descriptions and amazingly patient, staying with me even when internet connections were iffy. Thank you so much!"

Very attentive instructor. Good explanation. I was surprised how good she was at picking up my form even over the webcam and correcting it when needed. Very production lesson. Will be booking another session soon.

I have no hand eye coordination and really thought I might be a hopeless case, but Kim was incredibly patient. She knew how to get me to understand what she was doing (and what I needed to do) using various teaching techniques. And low and behold - I was kitting (albeit - not very well - hahaha). For a first lesson, I was very pleased.

As with crocheting, I can teach a range of students, from those with the beginning desire to learn to students wishing to hone specific techniques. My favorite techniques include in the round and double pointed needles, because who doesn't want to learn to avoid more sewing?

I'm enjoying my classes. I've been bringing Rhiannon stitches I want to learn without any notice, and she is always able to help me on the spot to learn them. Her flexibility (both in what I want to learn and in scheduling) makes private classes a pleasant and worthwhile investment. Highly recommend!

Patty is an excellent teacher, I'm lucky to have gotten a lesson with her. I had reservations about whether I should see someone with her level of expertise now as a beginner or later on when it might be more worth the expense, but I am now convinced it is crucial to learn fundamentals the right way, with an understanding of what and why (not just how with no contextual awareness). I'm glad I researched enough to get the sense that she would be best at teaching in this way, and I was right. Her lesson was illuminating and insightful. I feel fortunate to be learning fundamentals in this way, and feel I've made a valuable longterm investment by learning from her now.

Patty was very thorough and patient. I’m finally starting to understand what’s actually happening when I knit! Thanks Patty!

Thanks Patty !!!

Courtney has been such an inspirational teacher. She has taken me from absolute zero to feeling like I can actually do something with confidence now. This during only two lessons. Courtney has a very gracious and friendly teaching style with me which I find very patient and comforting while learning something challenging.

This was my first lesson with Courtney and am already looking at the schedule for possible next lessons. Courtney is very patient and encouraging. Thanks to her I have confidence that I will actually be able to learn knitting which seemed impossible before tonight. Thank you Courtney! I am so happy to have found a teacher like you. See you very soon.

I've been teaching knitting for 7 years and my students have gone on to create bags, scarves, headbands, and bracelets. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to complete a headband or scarf and as time goes on you'll be able to knit a hat in the round. I specialize in working with heavy weight yards and creating a funky, wildly textured projects. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!
