I took a free class today at a library branch with a great knitter. We learned how to make Elizabeth Zimmerman's Baby Surprise Jacket. It's very cool - you just knit, using double decreases and "make ones" and when it's finished, you fold and suddenly it's a little sweater. Of course I got about 10 rows done.
We also talked about the Fibonacci number sequence (to use it in stripes) and the color wheel. And Kaffe Fassett's Magic Ball (if that's what it called) that you create out of your leftovers. She had a little pink/violet jacket that she made out of leftover yarn all joined together.
I also learned of 2 evening knitting groups at different library branches - I may be doing that!
