does crafting better items make your smithing go up faster in skyrim?

Gregg Hagge: Craft Iron Daggers to get your smithing up the fastest, just wait 48 hours for the store to restock.

Carter Edstrom: as the ppl said before, just make a crap load of iron daggers by getting iron ingots and leather strips and you will have ur smithing up to 100 in no time!

Ha Wolski: Craft only Iron Daggers xD If you need some $$$$$ do this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rgj4qkzgtLQ

Bruno Galasso: yeap what everyone is saying iron daggers is easiest way to get smithing up i couldn't believe it worked but it does you can do all kinds of things to get your skills up
