Teaching again...

crafty_packratI just got asked if I'd like to teach a class on knitting socks on 2 circulars by the yarn lady at the local gift shop in January.
Uhm, squee!
I'll have to figure out what sock book would be best, and then corral my knitting friends and work out a lesson plan. I think knitting an in-class mini-sock would be a good idea, but really, it's a simple technique to pick up if you already know how to knit socks.
If you just know how to knit, it might be trickier, especially if you've only knit flat before... I need to think what the prerequisite knitting skills have to be: knitting in the round, knitting socks (cause heels are tricky if you've never done them before) or just flat knitting.
