what we learned on Sat
2 different colored needles help to prevent confusion
Addi Lace (Gold tip - red cable)
Addi Turbo (silver tip - silver cable)
you knit with the same color tips
it's easier to knit 2 adult sox on 32" needles
than it is to knit them on 24" needles
the longer the circ - the longer the part you hold
AND the longer the cable
2 different colors of yarns cut down on confusion
it's easier to see which sock you are working on
you won't knit the 2 sox together
it's easier to learn on children's sox
since they are smaller, you get farther .. faster
i need to figure a better way to explain how
to turn a heel
someone got hung up on that part
since MOST knitters do a K2P2 rib
giving them a NEW rib to try, throws them off
can't talk & knit without paying attention to
what you are doing
if your tail AND working yarn are both on the right
you are at the start of the sock
providing, you do a Long Tail Cast-on
Deb could relate to the knitters
she JUST went thru the joys of learning
it was fun
smaller groups mean you can give more attention
to the individual
i think they all got the concept
