Join long-time knitter and sock-knitting enthusiast Emily Landry (Quiltbag) for this three part workshop that will have you falling in love with knitting socks. We will create a custom sock recipe and work on finishing a pair of socks together!
Class will meet on three Thursday evenings at 6-8:30pm, every other week to allow time to work on your socks as you go.
April 16: Taking measurements, casting on, knitting two at a time in the round, toe shaping`
April 30: The heel turn! and knitting the leg
May 14: Cuffs and binding off
Materials Needed (all materials available for purchase in the shop!):
100 grams fingering weight sock yarn. I recommend looking for wool with some nylon (10% or more) for socks that will wear better over time!
One US 1 or US 1.5 circular needle, 36” or longer
OR
Two US 1 or US 1.5 circular needles, 16” or longer
Nice to have:
Darning/yarn needle
split or removable stitch markers
tape measure
Students should know how to knit/purl, do simple increases and decreases (kfb, k2tog, ssk) and work in the round. If you have knit a hat/beanie before, you should be good to go!
$95 - Class is designed for teen and adult learners - Come knit with us!!
