What with youtube exploding as the new hot thing on the internets, it’s only a matter of time before video tutorials are all over the place. Even now there are some great video tutorials out there, which is really helpful, particularly for some crafts like knitting, which can be very difficult to understand from a written description of a stitch or an illustration. Nothing beats being able to visually see something done so that you can repeat it yourself. Here are some of the craft-related videos I’ve managed to round up:
Pink of Perfection – queen of them all, this blog feature video tutorials on cooking, sewing, knitting and all kinds of other projects
Crafty girls podcast – from the oxygen network, how-tos for ‘stylish knit-wear and dazzling jewelry’ (via Kraf-O-La )
Annie’s Attic – Knitting, Crochet, Cross-Stitch and Plastic Canvas stitch guides
Next Stitch Crochet videos
Art of Stained Glass
Candlemaking
Scrapbooking Answers video podcast
Switchboards Podcast – not technically a tutorial, but about handmade goods

i’m so excited to check out this list! i love knittinghelp, she has taught me so so much!
Thanks for the linky, linky! It’s neat to see others doing videos for online viewers. One correction though: it’s N E X S T I T C H. Two t’s, not 3. Thanks!
On a whim, my friend and I took videos of ourselves knitting fair isle via two different techniques. Now I realize that it can be so helpful if you are learning!
