Hello All, I am in Germantown, MD. That is about 30 minutes outside of Washington, DC. I am a new knitter…I mean really new. I haven’t the slightest idea how to read a pattern, what needles to buy, what yarn to use. NADA! So any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I found a Knitting Salon very close to me, so I was thinking about dropping by. I am a bit apprehensive since I really don’t know what I am doing.
