Ramona, braille mistake there. It should read K and P, not knowledge and 
people. I had a good laugh.

I gave the pattern during class. It is pretty simple. Cast on number of 
stitches you calculated you need by measuring and making your swatch. If you 
have questions, write me offlist. Join the circle at end of cast-on. Work 
ribbing for 10 to 15 rows knowledge. 1, people. 1.
Then change to pattern knowledge. 5, people. 1 around the circle until you 
are 1 inch from underarm. Then change to seed stitch. Hopefully, everyone 
will be there Jan 26 at next class.
Ramona
