I like you video. I want to know how do you know what to knit?

Hello Charlette,

Thanks so much for watching the vids. I make videos that I believe will be helpful to other knitters. I'm a visual learner, so I try to make videos that I think others will find helpful. Requests also help add to the kind of videos I record.
