Join us for a two-part Sock knitting class!!

The class will go over the fundamentals/techniques of knitting socks;
casting on, gauge, magic loop vs. DPN, top down vs. toe up,
afterthought heel, reinforced heel, kitchener stitch, and differences
in socks with different weight yarns. The pattern is Wise Hilda’s
basic ribbed sock pattern found on Ravelry. The instructor will also give a list
of resources for different techniques in sock knitting.

Students who already know the basics, like how to cast on/off, knit, pearl, etc. can join this two-part series and learn how to knit their own socks.

Part 2 will be held on 2/6 from 1pm-2pm.

This class will be held online.
