Getting Started

Okay, we've had a few meetings so I thought I'd post a few things to help us get through the bumps you may encounter.

First, crochet. http://www.youtube.com/user/tjw1963#play/playlists
Teresa's crochet page has a lot of good things, including left-handed crochet.  Good luck.

And now, knitting.
First we have the knit stitch, in continental because that is what Katie insists on teaching. 


And purl


And if you are lucky enough to get this far...casting off!


As a side note, if anybody knows a good knit/crochet glossary, send me the link so I can post in in the sidebar as a tool.

And now...your moment of zen.

Meeting times

Well everyone, we finally got our collective heads out of our collective rears and decided on some times to meet.

If you are interested in learning how to knit or crochet,we have a learning night on Mondays at 8 to whenever you feel like leaving.

If you just want the social fun-ness (and why wouldn't you, really?) the Knitting Club meets on Wednesdays at 7:15.

As always, we meet in the Atrium TV lounge. Bring your works in progress, patterns, and smiles! It's gonna be a fun ride.
