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.
