I watch the videos but find they often waste my time with slow introductions, hand movements, and amateur video skills. Get to the point already!
I do like written instructions. There is an art to writing instructions that are clear and concise so one can follow along. Think how often patterns have mistakes or leave us confused.
It is also important that instructions are easy to read. Bullet lists and numbered steps are more visually pleasing than paragraph structure with sentences all lumped together.
It's great to have choices!
