Knit along Sock Knitting with Jo Wallace over 3 sessions Saturdays 13th, 20th & 27th February, 2027 10.30 - 1pm.
There is something special about wearing hand-knitted socks and in this knit along with your tutor Jo, you will learn how to knit a top- down sock on double pointed needles across three sessions
In the first session you will learn how to master the foundation row without getting in a twist, complete the rib (and avoid ladders) and start the body of the sock to complete at home.
In the second session you will turn the heel by creating a heel flap, short-row shaping and Jo will demonstrate her hack for making a beautiful gusset! You will continue knitting the foot to complete at home.
In the final session, you will shape the toe and learn two techniques for finishing off, before beginning to start your second sock.
Includes DPN needles, stitch markers, pattern and sock yarn for a pair of socks.
Please note. You will need to have mastered and be confident in basic knit and purl stitches to join the class.
