Can we do the flower class again.  I was not able to get the loom in time
for the class, when it was held, before.

Wait, wait, wait.  This sounds like a class!!!!  

I would like to see more classes[all the time] and I would like to have
those who would like to try teaching a class to get in touch with me.  

I am looking into my crystal ball for some Knifty Knitter/loom classes to
teach some new stitches.  Example: the rib stitch[ knits and purls] a cable
stitch[guess what more knits and purls] or those double stitches.  More
techniques of casting on, binding off.  I believe everyone gets more out of
a class where the group are meeting together and have different words of
descriptions to share with each other.  

I will work with anyone to help them plan, practice or use me as a guinea
pig to test out.

My door, email and phone number is available to everyone.

Hi  Barb,

I'd be interested to hear how it goes for you making that scarf.  is the
figure eight method the same thing as double knit, do you know? I  had tried
a double knit scarf a month or so ago and found it rather  confusing at the
time, so went back to the round loom. Perhaps now though,  I would be able
to master it.  what brand of yarn are you using? 4-ply  I assume?

That's great Terry, do be sure and let us know  how it comes out. I would be
curious to find out if the glasses would  "catch" on the yarn or not.
I am currently working on a figure 8 wrap scarf  on the small long loom, new
loom, new technique.
I have a skein of the  thick and quick, but have not decided what to make
with it yet.
