[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

Eilene;
What will we be making.  Is this another method for a hat?  Is three pli
yarn all right.  I have plenty.  
What length do you want the 2 sets for the second class.  I am used to
10.5 about.

Add me to the list.  Why did you pick afternoon.  This messes up the
whole Saturday, if anyone wants to go anywhere.  I like 8:00 eastern
time.  Just enough time to get home from work and grab a bite to eat,
before class.  

Terry

Time:  2:00 PM (Eastern) 

Required Materials:  
1 40-inch long circular needle in size of your choice.  
Note:  If you have a 40-inch needle with a flexible cable such as an

size.

Class #2 -- Knitting In The Round With Two Circular Needles. 

Date:  Saturday, May 2, 2009.

Time:  2:00 PM (Eastern).

Required Materials: 
2 circular needles of the same size. (I.E.:  2 size USA 6, or  2 USA
size 10.5, etc).  
Note:  You may for learning purposes find it easier to select 2 same
size needles of different lengths or of different 

materials.  For example, 1 16-inch long ndl & 1 24-inch needle.  Or 1
needle that is bamboo and one that is metal.

Small Quantity of an appropriate weight, smooth yarn for the needle size
you have selected.  

Stitch markers. 

These classes are for those who already know the basics of knitting.
Experience with knitting rounds may be helpful, but is 

not necessary.  

Skills Required:  Casting On, Binding Off, Knit Stitch.

Class Description: 
Take only one class or the two classes that will teach how to knit in
the round using two different methods.  Each class is 

independent of the other technique so you don't need to know one
technique for learning the other.  Each of these two 

classes are technique oriented and will not focus on any one project.
These are alternative techniques for knitting small 

circumferences without the use of double pointed needles.  You can use
up some of your left over yarns, just make sure 

that for each class you have sufficient quantities of yarn to knit
several inches.

Class will start promptly at 2:00 PM.  A ten minute wait time will be
allowed for stragglers, so be sure to be on time.  

Phone number & access code to be posted at a later date.
