Shopping !!!



Another fun weekend was had with my sister at the Knitter's Day Out. Quality knitting time ( and wine sipping)was spent with my sister, did some shopping and learned a few more knitting techniques.

Two classes I registered for were Bavarian Knitting with Beth Walker. She was a no show but the disappointment of this would not ruin my weekend. The sub teacher taught us how to cut a steek which was something I had heard of but sounded pretty scary. I still think I will avoid them along with all the twisted stitches involved in Bavarian Knitting . But the class was still interesting and I also picked up a ribbing I will try with my next pair of socks where you knit thru the back loops.



My other class was very exciting .The teacher was dynamic and very helpful and this is something that I may try to do more of. .We started a 2 color coaster in class but mine did not get finished I would love to learn more about double knitting but when searched it not very much shows up.
