Fantastic Dec 29, 2008
By Rhonda Harris I received this DVD today. It is the second DVD I have purchased about knitting. I have only been knitting for about 2 months. The only project I have made is one scarf all in knit stitch. But what I learned in this DVD is amazing. I do not work for Lesure Arts and I love this DVD. Within 5 minutes of watching it I was able to duplicate the the 2X2 rib stitch shown in the video. The stitch along feature with the automatic pause makes it very easy to knit at your own pace. Because the instructor names the stitch as she does it I have learned serveral new techniques just by watching. I have learned how to do a yarn over on purchase instead of by accident, how to knit two together, how to slip a stitch as if to knit and/or to purl, it increased my knowledge as to how to read a pattern because the DVD shows the pattern, then the instructor says what she is doing as she knits it. You will learn the Berry stitch, the Moss Stitch Panes, the 5-Stitch Cable with Bobble, the 2X2 Rib, the Slip Stitch Boxes, the Moss Stitch, the Cross Stitch Zigzag, the Trellis Lace Stitch, the Small Wheatear Stitch, the Crocus Buds Stitch, the Snowflakes Stitch and the Yarn Over Cable Stitch. You will also learn how to make the following projects: a scarf, a shawl, a headband, a shoulder warmer, and a spa cloth. I also have the Art of Knitting DVD by Leisure arts. I did learn how to do the knit and pearl stitch with it but it is not anywhere as good as this DVD. It's too bad they faked some of the reviews because this is an excellent DVD.

BEWARE!!! FAKE REVIEWS!! Aug 18, 2007
By lm Click on "see all my reviews" next to each reviewers name and you will notice that 99% of them reviewed identical books, all with GLOWING reviews. All of the books "reviewed" by the posters are from Leisure Arts. Coincidence? I think not. Because of these false reviews I will NOT purchase anything from Leisure Arts. Making their own reviews, puh-leeeeeease!

BUM DVD! Dec 18, 2010
By Kat Hebert I came close to returning this DVD because of poor quality of the disk itself. The DVD would not play in the family player, or the kids' DVD player. It did play on my husband's laptop, but that is very much too inconvenient. I finally found an old half-broken portable DVD player it would work on. But it's not like I will be siting there for over an hour, as with a movie--so it'll do. As far as the content, I am very pleased with that. And that is why I am not returning the DVD. It's just a shame the company which produced this couldn't be more professional and kind to consumers. Shame on them! I did not get what I wanted because I can't sit and watch this on the family TV. My advice is to not get this from amazon, but to try to find an area store which carries it. Then, if you get a bum DVD as I did, at least you can try to return it without the shipping charges.

Knit Stitches in Motion Feb 23, 2010
By Sheri A. Evans
"needy knitter"
I love this DVD and have learned a great deal more from watching it. The stitches taught are ones that I personally like and after learning abreviations like PSSO and others I am able to now read and knit from my other knitting books. I am a visual learner and have enjoyed the Leisure Arts video's.

Not that impressed Sep 03, 2009
By Leslie Vanderford I've been knitting for about a month and learned to knit from another DVD. It was so easy to learn from that DVD that I thought it'd be interesting to see some more advanced stitches. I went ahead and rented this DVD and I'm just honestly not that impressed with it.
CONS:
1. There were never any pauses to see the stitch patterns in progress. For me, the point of having the DVD was to see everything and feel reassured that I was knitting correctly. It would have been nice if after each row there was a pause or picture to see what the swatch should look like. There were some patterns where I was sure I'd made a complete mess out of things but it turns out that's just the way it looked half way through. This is probably my biggest complaint. Just adding this step would have made it worth having the DVD.
2. The knitting along with commentary was not helpful. I'd hoped the commentary would explain some of the more difficult stitches (beyond just knit and purl, e.g. k2tog, psso, etc) or give advice on how to make them easier. It very rarely did this. I can barely even remember what the extra commentary was since it didn't provide anything meaningful.
3. The included projects weren't very interesting. I didn't even bother to knit one of them and just did the practice swatches. The most interesting section was on creating the pom poms.
I'm a little confused as to the intended audience for the DVD. If you're a beginner I'd think you'd be better off searching online for free demo videos of all the stitches then learning from this DVD. There are also free knit patterns online. If you're not a beginner then all you probably need is the listing of stitch patterns and the DVD is unnecessary. The projects weren't interesting enough to inspire someone more advanced, or at least they didn't inspire me.
What I did like about the DVD was the included sheet listing all the patterns. The only reason I'm giving this three stars is that I like quite a few of the patterns and I did manage to learn new stitches. If you don't want to take the time to search out better resources online this will get you the end result of learning these patterns.
