[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Chat or class idea

[Bernice Bird]

I'll also participate. I downloaded the braille version to put on my Braille
Note, so it is digital braille on a display.
Several times I thought I would ask for a braille book on demand, but
decided not to since I can have the braille on my braille display. My house
is smaller, and when I moved I sold or gave away over 100 volumes of
braille. I better not start getting hard copy braille again.

Hi  Tracy,  
I have ordered the book from the Talking Book Library. I ordeded a   Braille
Book until my Braille Copy comes from Braille Books on demand. I  probably
not get my copy to keep until April, since I have ordered  3 other Knitting
Books  from Book on Demand for the Months of January, February and March. 
I can not wait to get my copy in Braille Knitting from the Top  to keep. 
I am intthrested in the class, so I will be signing  up for it.  
Thanks so much for teaching the class. I look forward to the class. 
Happy Knitting!
Kathryn

If there's any interest, I could talk about how to use the book Knitting
>From the Top, by Barbara Walker and available in braille from BARD, to
create knitted garments without a pattern.  
I don't think it would take long, so it might be good for maybe the Monday
chat.  But it could be a short class-whatever.
I've used the book several times to create sweaters and vests, using the
template and adding my own stitch patterns to make my own designs.  It
doesn't take any special skills, only knit, purl, increase and decrease, the
confidence to improvise, and not to panic when faced with a little simple
arithmetic. 
Anyway, that's my thought, if anyone is interested.
Tracy
