Tess understands the structure of knitting - by that I don't just mean the stitches but the design of garments, complex issues of how to decrease to have a sweater that fits, etc. Because of her deep understanding she is able to explain a stitch, solve a problem in a myriad of ways so as a student you get a deeper understanding and are able to become a more independent knitter. My recommendation is that if you have any real desire to become a knitter take as many courses as you can from her - you will always learn something important and useful.

I looked through the classes for the upcoming Madrona retreat, and although they would be fun for the social aspect, I don’t really need to take any, Tess can do all the teaching they are offering right here at home. I don’t think I say it often enought, but thanks Tess for being such a great teacher! OK, this is a random comment, but one that needs to be made.

The FLS gives a link on the pattern for on-line help for a reversible one-row buttonhole. Well, I went there, got frustrated, and thought I'd just refer to one of Tess's tutorials on buttonholes. Well, both the online help, and the tutorial were both saying the same thing, but the instructions from Tess were WAY easier to understand and execute. Leave it to an engineer to give you top notch instructions! I highly recommend Tess for a tutorial if you ever run into problems. You will leave with a complete grasp of the issue. Thanks Tess.

It was fun even with the beads falling on the floor. I am planning to give this as a Christmas gift to my niece. It's a good thing I am starting now. Right now I am slow but hoping that I will get the technique down and become a little faster. We are hoping that the Baby Surprise Sweater will be offered again as our summer plates are too full for it now. Thanks again for being such a supportive instructor. Trish Tess,

You really straightened me out on doing increases and saved my sanity. Doing the yarn overs and then knitting them off, is such a simple way. It is so nice to learn this early in my sock knitting venture. Thanks again, Mary Ann Tess,
