Re: Knitting
I've seen classes at the library too. Once you've got the basics down most good knitting stores will help you with a specific project if you buy the yarns from them too.
For advanced knitting there are wonderful seminars sponsored by Knitter's Magazine with classes on a lot of topics, but unless it's changed it's not for beginners - you want to know the basics of knit, purl and other basic stitches and pattern reading.
This is their website and they have a lot of interesting stuff here.

Re: Knitting
I would like to go TOO! If you find a class. I tried it on my own with a book. I could not even get past the first step!
I think I might try crocheting(sp?) first
