Crazy Sock Lady
What is a gusset? Should you use double pointed needles (DPNs) or magic loop method, and what is the magic loop method anyway? What is this mysterious second sock fatigue? The Crazy Sock Lady YouTube channel is a helpful place to answer these questions and more as you begin your journey into sock knitting. The channel’s host, Kay, provides practical tips and comprehensive advice. Knitters can even knit along with her step-by-step tutorial to make a basic pair of socks in her “How to Knit Socks on Magic Loop” tutorial.

When I first started knitting projects more complicated than a simple scarf, Judy's YouTube channel was a valuable resource in helping to break down techniques not typically found in knitting patterns. She also has a lot of great tips and tricks that are a valuable part of every knitter's knowledge building, such as what to do when your working yarn breaks or how to bind off a project with purl stitches.
