Denise -
I'm starting new classes this Spring. My Spinning class was canceled, but my Beginning Knitting using Portuguese Style Knitting is a go.
We'll use Button-Up Neck Warmers as the class project. The photo is from the pattern. I have Andrea Wong's DVD to help with the visualization of stitches.
Update...
Class went well. PK style is easy to learn. All students basically got the knit, purl, and knitted cast on. The challenges were tension and figuring out where the needle picks up the new stitch. I explained that it's like driving a car into the garage. The car drives in and backs out the same way. If not....(student answered on her own).
I have one student who will start the neck warmer. She wants to change it to a scarf. We talked about how to change it. I showed her, and any others, the pattern stitches.
