I love learning with others. :)<BR/><BR/>Ohh, the shoes-yes! Believe it or not, I saw them first on Oh Happy Day, Jordan's great blog: http://jordanferney.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_ archive.html. I bought them via Piperlime. The shoe brand is Poetic Licence (totally fitting since, well, I write and teach poetry!) and they were good for our budget too (about $60 at the time). So comfortable too!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12337506449974498011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2492453798237644863.post-87836717174905322692008-09-09T08:23:00.000-05:002008-09-09T08:23:00.000-05:00I'm a pretty unaccomplished knitter but I do h...I'm a pretty unaccomplished knitter but I do have fun! I would definitely recommend taking a class or two if you can find something around you - maybe a basic learn to knit class and then a project class (I wish I had taken a let's make something class!). The books are helpful to a point but there are tons of knitters out there who have lots of great tips & tricks that you won't necessarily learn in a book. I really like some of the Vogue books about different stitches etc - good pics and easy to follow instructions. Good luck - BTW, I linked over here from Snippet & Ink after perusing your lovely wedding photos. May I ask where you found those great red sandals?!Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12526455115763705017noreply@blogger.com
