Knit Texture Tutorial Colored Pencil Technique

In this video I show step-by-step how I achieve a knit texture using colored pencils. I do go over my picture with many layers for fine tweaking and softer color gradation. While it is a long process, you do NOT have to be an advanced artist/colorist in order to follow along. Just take it one step at a time and if the entire process seems a little overwhelming feel free to stop at any point or simplify the steps down to only a few layers to suit your own style!
