The fall schedule of classes from my favourite wool store came out today, and I've signed up for three classes - fingerless gloves, lace 101 which will ulimately result in a shawl and Introduction to Entrelac, which is a really cool pattern for scarves.

And this week and next I have my learn to knit mitts classes, which I'm really looking forward to. Once I've learned to knit mitts, I'll be able to do complete hat, mitts, and scarf sets as gifts.

And I'm almost finished my shawl - I just have three more rows of colours in the last band to do, and then finish the edging which is 10 rows. Of course the rows are now so long that each row takes me half an hour to knit it.

But I'm having loads of fun.

that sounds great! I barely know how to knit but I like to crochet. I go to the library and check out pattern books. one time I made a couple of puppets, and I'm thinking about making my dog a sweater before next winter...she probably wont like it but it would be fun to do!
