“60 years of knitting and I still learned so much from this adorable duo. Norwegian purl will be a game changer for me. Their way of thinking about knitting was so refreshing. Well worth the cost of admission for this class alone. Lots of useful tips & fabulously endearing.”
–Nancy M.,
Knit Stars 3.0 owner
"I was knitting watching it, of course, and tried their knit stitch – it’s so easy and effortless! The purl stitch will take a little more practice but what fun. Have never done increases like that before, but I will now. Such a great start for Knit Stars!”
–Katherine D.,
Knit Stars 3.0 owner
“I’m heading to bed waaaaay late due to my brand-new obsession with Norwegian purl! I ended up watching that segment of Arne & Carlos at half speed as I practiced. I loved their history of Norwegian fashion/sweater design as well. It’s always fascinating to learn about a new place from someone who calls it home.”
–Tracy K.,

“I look at it as grad school for knitters. I rewatch the videos all the time when I am working on a pattern that calls for a specific technique. You really get to know the teachers and a peek into their world. You also get to watch footage of where they live and in a virtual way travel the world. I have been a member since the beginning and it has been worth every penny. There are also transcripts of each class included as well. And it is more than just the videos – it is community. I have made friends with people all over the world. There is a private Knit Stars FB group where we all discuss what we are learning and show what projects we are working on. Everyone helps each other learn. You will love it 💕.”
