I'm taking another class at my favourite wool shop tonight to learn to knit socks. Tonight we learn the techniques, by knitting a minisock, and then next week we get started on real full sized socks. It's going to be fun.

That sounds like fun. I take classes at my wool shop, also. I've been meaning to take a knitting class since I only know how to crochet. Let us know how it goes!

Knitting socks is really really hard. I only got the toe made and the gusset, while everyone else managed to get the heel turned. I don't know if I'm going to try working on the sock on my own this week, or if I'll wait until the second class to do the rest of it, so I can ask questions.
