Am enjoying this course and find the teacher wonderful, but there’s a few things that were passed on to the beginning student that he didn’t address.  I’m not trying to correct or criticize him here, so please understand my intent.   First, when measuring with knitting needles, you need to have your arm fully extended as well as make sure your standing position does not change, or your measurements won’t be correct.
Second, it took me a while of not seeing my pencil strokes look like his to understand that he was changing his pencils.  I thought, as he insisted at the beginning, that all of the pencils should be 3H.   After doing the cadaver drawing, I’ve finally discovered that this isn’t the case and that he must be changing pencils, because my strokes sure looked different than his in the drawings.   So you might want to elaborate which pencils he uses in the videos, because for a beginner like me, this is essential.
Thank you.
