SUMMARY:Sock Clinic
DESCRIPTION:Interested in delving into the wild world of socks? Or maybe you want to learn a new heel technique or knit a sock from a different direction (top down or toe up!). This class is all about exploring the different ways to make a sock. We’ll talk about how to measure your foot\, what kind of fibers work best for socks\, and the different styles of small-circumference knitting. We’ll also explore different types of heels and toes. First-time sock knitters or those looking to explore magic loop or flexible double-pointed needles for the first time can choose a classic top-down sock like I’m So Basic Socks\, or one with just enough texture to keep things interesting. Looking to explore the world of toe-up socks? DRK Everyday Socks are for you if you like a dependable ribbed sock\, or Socks on a Plane if you want to throw a simple cable in.
