Check out spinning in the Himalayas, finding a wheel to suit you, and learn about the technicalities of worsted, woolens, and semi-somethings. Visit Southeastern Iowa, make a cloister sweater, and learn the ins-and-outs of drumcarders. All this and more!.

There are several inspirating versions of Elizabeth Zimmerman's Baby Surprise Jacket (BSJ), using the mitered garter stitch. Great color blends and cool dinosaur buttons make you want to go out and adopt someone's kid just to try this technique. -Ursula
