love is all you need

Two things that have been on my mind lately; The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs and The Knitting Guild of America's Master Knitter Program.
I started reading The Friday Night Knitting Club when I was in the Burbank, California airport after having arrived early only to find that my flight would be leaving an hour and a half late. This book helped the time "fly" (pun intended) during the long wait. I'm about halfway through- so no spoilers, please.
The Knitting Guild of America's Master Knitter Program is something that has been in the back of my head for over a year now, and I only recently decided that I wanted to do it. If you don't know about it check out tkga.com for what its about, what it involves, etc. I really love knitting and I think this will be a great learning process for me. Just be prepared for lots of advice-seeking and swatch pictures in the near future...
