Challenge~
What is one craft you wish you could learn in 2007?
I want to learn to knit this year. I have always wanted to learn to knit a number of things. So my goal is to give it a try before the year is over. Maybe if I get the hang of it OK I can make some new hats and scarfs for my boys. Can never have enough of these winter items. If anyone has any helpful tip or hints for a beginner please feel free to share. I will need all the advice a person can get. I've got no clue what all I need to start this craft even.

Knitting? I've always been TERRIBLE at it.
I wish you the best of luck and can't wait to see what you come up with :)

That sounds like a cool fun thing to learn. A friend of my mom knits and she made a blanket for each of my boys as well as myself and my brothers when we all were babies. Good luck and I wish you the best in learning this new skill!!
Knitting is cool! I learned a basic stitch a long time ago and it's still the only stitch I know but I always had fun knitting. What worked best for me was the metal needles instead of the wooden ones. I also preferred the skinny needles as opposed to the thick ones. Have fun with it!
I learned to knit from some ladies at church. Then my sister learned and she is much better than I so whenever I need help I ask her. Also, we have a book called Stitch and Bitch. It's very helpful! Scraves are the easiest!
Oh... and my needle preference is bamboo.
The store in Belle Plaine Memory Mine offers free knitting classes.
Maria the owner would teach you!
