Knitting Lesson
So, I scheduled my first “professional” knitting lesson. I popped into Knitorious the other day to check out some yarn and what not, and the lady I was talking to was rambling off a lot of terms I didn’t recognize/skills I do not possess. She was going over an “easy beginner” pattern with me, and she’s like,” Well all you need for this one is stockinette stitch, drop stick, (and a few other things I didn’t get and thus do not remember)”…I looked at her and said, “I know the knit stitch…that’s it. I kind of know how to cast-on, and I am struggling to learn how to crochet left handed from a right handed teacher. I knit right handed, though.”
She suggested I schedule a private lesson, as they are not really offering classes at the moment. I thought this was a wonderful idea, and did just that. So next Tuesday, I go in for my knitting lesson. We are going to work on the basics and then start a baby hat (the “easy beginner project”) . I may change it to an adult hat, and make it for my co-worker’s sister who is going through chemo. We’ll see. I’m going to make her one regardless.
Well…more later…back to work.
