Want to step up your sock game? In this class we'll learn how to create your own custom cuff-down sock pattern. We'll learn about the critical parts of a sock and teach you some different methods for heels and toes. With multiple options in your repertoire, you'll be able to customize and create your own pattern!
If you want to take sock knitting even ONE STEP further, there is an option to dye your own sock yarn prior to the knitting classes! You’ll learn the basics of hand dyeing and how to plan (and read) colours specifically for socks.
