I was just reading Annie Modesitts knitting blog.  She was talking about how people tell her she is knitting wrong.  When I was buying yarn for Tubey I went to Jennifer Knits (I don't like this yarn store at all).  I was able to find the one nice helper in the shop and she got me some really nice yarn.  I knit up a gauge swatch right there in the store and when I was done the lady complemented me on how fast I knit.  The shopkeeper Jennifer must have heard because she came up and took one look at my knitting and said, " Oh youre knitting wrong."  She then proceeded to  show me how to knit the right way.  I was so mad.  I could have just blown up in her face but instead I just pretended to agree with her.   It was a horrible experience.  I strongly suggest you dont get your yarn there.
In other knitting news I have started my Christmas gift knitting.  This is one of the reasons why I love Ravelry.  In my queue I can order the projects so when I look at it I know exactly what I want to knit, for who, with what kind of yarn, and when I need to finish it.  It is so cool!
