I had the absolute pleasure yesterday to learn the Continental style of knitting from a bonafide Grandma... or, more specifically, a bonafide Mormor - which is Danish for Grandma and gosh, I hope I spelled it right!
You know, books are great for learning all sorts of things, and the knitting book I own is very insightful. But there's just no substitution for learning something complicated from an actual human being who can watch how you're doing and tell you if it's right or wrong.
She also showed me how to do tassels...
That's not in the book...
Oh, and no, I didn't have to kidnap her, but we did have juice and cookies...
