Knitting Socks from the Top Down
This class covers the basics to sock knitting, including stretchy cast-ons, turning the heel and how to graft up those toes! This will be an intense 3 hour workshop and in the interest of getting through all the techniques a small toddler size sock will the project for this class (using the Magic Loop method). Participants in the class should know at least one method of casting on, how to knit and purl and be familiar with knitting in the round. Knowing how to pick up stitches is useful but not required. Some preparation required in advance of class.
