So, I'm thinking of taking up knitting as I have very little to do right now and wondered if anyone could give me a few pointers on where to start in terms of good online guides, books, places to get patterns etc etc. I can already do the most basic of knitting but I'm looking for something that's actually going to challenge me otherwise I'll get bored and have endless balls of sad wool just sat in the corner looking at me.
So, go ahead, educate me oh wise knitters of the forum.
