Forbes: Craftsy #19 Most Promising Company

We all know that I love Craftsy with all my heart. Not only do some of the best people in the yarn industry work there but they have been a breath of fresh air in just about ALL Crafting Communities.

It looks like they are getting noticed even more as Forbes just announced they rate Craftsy #19 Most Promising Company of 2014. How cool is that?

I would like to congratulate Craftsy on the wonderful success AND I want to let you all in on some of my favorite Craftsy classes.

Well, the best class on Craftsy is of course my class *wink*.

Mittens and Glove Galore takes a knitter from beginner to advanced with a variety of 5 patterns that teach everything from working with double pointed needles, picking up stitches, working in lace, reading charts, thrumming and stranded colorwork. Get this class for 50% off now and don’t miss out on what over 7000 other knitters have learned 🙂

 

 

A new class  recently added to the wonderful Craftsy knitting classes is Choose Your Own Sweater Adventure with the amazing Eunny Jang.

 

 

 

Something that all knitters need to know are Seaming Handknits by Chris Blysma  and
