“Liat, where the heck have you been? I gave up on you!”
Answer: I’ve been here! Since last year when I published my “I’m back!” post, I’ve been here, working on KnitFreedom.
Since my customers have been asking for a way to log into their accounts and see their classes easily since at least 2012, I decided to focus my efforts on that.
It’s now ready!
1) Customer Accounts are Ready
All customers who have ever bought a class on KnitFreedom now have an account where you can create a password, log in, and see the classes you bought. For more information on accessing your account for the first time, or any problems you may encounter, see details on getting your account set up, below.
2) All Classes are Improved
All 17 knitting classes that we offer are are updated and improved, and available on your My Classes page (click My Account > My Classes in the menu bar). You’ll find improved sidebar navigation to help you navigate the large classes like Mastering Magic Loop Socks and Become a Knitting Superstar.
3) Download Videos for Offline Use
If you own any classes or are a member of Premium Lifetime (see below), you can now download the class videos to your computer or mobile device for offline viewing. Great for slow Internet connections or traveling. Head to your Video Downloads page (click My Account > Video Downloads) in the menu bar.
4) All Videos Are Accessible from the Knitting Videos Page
We have more than 400 knitting videos on KnitFreedom! You can see and search them all on our Knitting Videos page. If you’re logged in to your account, you will be able to access your paid videos (the ones that are part of classes you’ve bought) from that page as well.
5) Introducing KnitFreedom Premium
A new feature, KnitFreedom Premium Library, is available now and at a great price. You can get online access to all of KnitFreedom classes with Premium Monthly from $12.99/month for as long as you are signed up. Or, for a one-time purchase of $197 you can get Premium Lifetime, which is lifetime access to all classes we offer, offline downloads of our videos, and free access to future classes (a $665 value).
Some testimonials from Premium Lifetime customers:
“Apart from the volume of information and crystal-clear instruction, the greatest benefit I have received is the sense of calm that is evolving from it.” –Leah W.H.
“I have purchased a large number of Craftsy classes, and I don’t think I would have if I had known about your site first. I am definitely recommending it to everyone I know and in my online groups.” –Candace T.

I’m thinking of becoming a Premium member, but I did not receive an answer to my blog question re Addi Flexilips socks. Is there any chance that you will be discussing this approach to sock knitting, i.e. using Flexiflip needles and if you have a preference over Magic Loop? Thank you. Lucille Kalinske
Hi Lucille,
Thanks so much for your comment here. I searched but didn’t find the comment you mentioned about Flexiflips. I’m so sorry! Maybe it didn’t get posted after you wrote it. I do try to answer every comment so I’m glad you wrote me here again.
As far as Addi Flexiflips go, I’m happy to discuss this approach here. I adore using Magic Loop and stand by it as an excellent way to knit anything in the round. The reasons I prefer Magic Loop over DPNs, flexible or not, is that you can use the same needles for many things. You can use a 47-inch circular needle to knit two socks at one time, or a whole sweater, or one mitten thumb. It doesn’t matter.
Magic Loop is such a flexible approach to knitting in the round that I prefer it to any other method. You save a lot of money by not having to buy different needles for different projects. The needles are harder to lose, because there’s only one. AND you can knit two-at-a-time, which is my favorite way to make a pair of anything. They don’t call it “second sock syndrome” for nothing. Having to knit the second sock is always less fun. With Magic Loop, you can do them both at the same time, and they come out exactly the same. And if you are going to knit something large in diameter, like a sweater or blanket, the long circular needle can be used for that too.
The Magic Loop video course is full of information on why Magic Loop is great, and includes many videos to help you perfect the technique. If you try it, you will be knitting so quickly, you’ll love it.
I hope this helps!
Cheers,
Liat
So how does one that bought the full package way back when log on now?
Your instructions were the clearest, easiest to follow and saved me from quitting when I first really started.
Sorry that I am just now responding, been having a few personal things going on.

Hurray! Thank you so much for all your hard work to make this an awesome place. My knitting has lagged this year after making a big move but I’m hoping to get it back into my routine. I look forward to having your voice back in action!
Thank you so much Margery! It’s wonderful to get a comment from you. And congrats on the big move! I love hearing from you – your voice is as important to me as mine is to you. Thanks so much for posting and I look forward to sending you new knitting tips and tricks ASAP.
Hugs,
Liat
Wow! And wow, again! I love what you have done. Your work certainly shows. Again, I love all your classes. I really feel I have all need from you to be a confident knitting superstar. ? I will always continue to recommend your site to new and old knitting friends. It’s the best! ? ~Bobbi Palagi, Bozeman
Hi Bobbi,
Thank you so much for your sweet comment. I love hearing from you! I’m so glad the new design is going to be helpful to you. If there’s anything you would wish improved, just let me know!
Thank you a million times for recommending me and being such a wonderful student and friend.
Liat
Great changes on your site Liat. I learned so much from you that I was beginning to miss getting news from you..
As a knitting man, even if my wife has been knitting all her life, I had a different view about how I wanted to knit. I tried to learn from her, just for fun at first, but
When I got serious about it, realized that I prefer to knit in the Continental style and learned it mostly from you. And it’s the same for socks, hats, etc…
At first, I was knitting at home in secret, but now I am not afraid to go to knitting activities with my wife and get asked a lot of questions about my knitting style… ;-)
Thanks for your work,
Gilles
Hi Gilles,
It’s wonderful to hear from you. I love that you’ve been so active in the KnitFreedom community on Facebook.
It had truly been far too long since I sent out an email to my beloved students. Now with customer accounts all set up, I’m looking forward to sending out knitting tips and tricks once again.
If there’s anything you would particularly like to learn about, please let me know!
Hugs,
Liat
