Anyone Up For Some Bartering?

I desperately wish to improve my knitting skills and learn some basic crochet. If any of you live locally and know how to do these, are willing to show/teach me, and you are open to bartering, please let me know! I will entertain all offers.  ;)  Ideally, I'd like to be able to hook up with you at a local coffee shop or pub an evening or two a week for a couple weeks (to avoid the distraction of the kids) in June or July. I'm in Hintonburg (Parkdale/Wellington neighbourhood).
