Thanks! We'll email you when seats open up or a new class is added.
You’ve been asking for stranded socks, here they are! Lots of detail for engaging knitting, and small, overall patterning with no long floats to worry about. The pattern is written for multiple sizes so is accessible to everyone. In this class, we’ll work on refining stranded knitting, and discuss the differences in gauge and technique between single colour and stranded socks.
required skills:
- you should be comfortable knitting in the round
- ideally you have made at least one pair of plain socks before with fingering weight yarn
- ideally you have worked at least one stranded knitting project already (2 colours)
homework
cast on and work the cuff of one sock before the first class
what to bring
- fingering weight sock yarn in two or three contrasting colours (see pattern for required quantities);
- needle type for knitting small circumferences (dpns, 2 circs, long circ for magic loop) 2.5mm and 3.0mm recommended
- darning needle and scissors
