Just watched this video (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=VNl8MMAr0lM) and learn to do the backwards-loop-cast-on method. I’ll have to try it next time I cast on something (other than the cure for SSS) ... only without the noodle.

Today I did something I never even thought I would do!
First, I taught someone to knit. Second, she’s a lefty! (psst! I’m not.)
Wow! I think I’ve done my quota for the month. ;) Think I can sit back and relax now, eh?

Last week I learned to knit in the round with two circular needles.
Today, I did a folded hem.

And by fearlessly, I mean boldly jump into new techniques, difficult patterns, exotic yarns.
