I didn't make it to the knitting shop this weekend like I had planned, but I called in reinforcements i.e. the wife. I was hoping for this to be a surprise, but I wanted additional motivation. So now, we have a date planned to the museum and then a hop over to the knitting shop this coming weekend. I'll let you know how this goes.

They illustrate both continental and english knitting methods with good pictures, and directions. The projects after each section reinforce the techniques introduced at the beginning of the chapter.

I'll order the book from amazon as a starter and see how far I can get... I'll have to find some knitting friends around here that don't know my wife or else I won't be able to do this on the sly.
