Sandra, I alreeady did just that. I found a small local yarn shop who is located in our farmers market shops. She has a selection of beautiful yarns. I went to her house for a 1 hour lesson and that got me started. I'm about 3/4 done on my first scarf and I also bought another yarn for the 2nd. I must admit I have already started the 2nd one! I love those skinny long scarves. I will eventually knit something else, but for now I'm enjoying practicing on my scarves.

It seems to me that I'm slow, but I guess I'll pick up speed a I become more experienced.

Merry Christmas!
