I recommend their Hat class next. :) The first "Stitch and Bitch" book is really good, if you don't already have it. It would be amazing if you would start a knitting group!!

I'm not in New York but I've been knitting forever. I taught myself so I've never gotten very advanced but I make a lot of scarves and other simple projects. I use this website as a jumping off point a lot http://www.knittingpatterncentral.com/ It is just basically a collection of links to yarn site patterns, bloggers patterns, etc. But I often link to a site that I see another cool link on, etc. Word of caution, lots of knitting patterns are not tested before they are published and contain errors! Beware! This is why getting them from blogs is sometimes better, usually the blogger has actual done the pattern and if they are really nice you can leave a comment about getting stuck and they will help you! Have fun! Me!
