Knitting Socks Two at a Time Workshop

Date of class:  19 & 26-10-2024  Class time:  10.30-12.00

Never suffer from the ‘second sock syndrome’ again! Learning how to knit 2 socks (or mittens, sleeves etc) can be such an easy way to get 2 identical knits done at once.  Join Sara in her favorite technique for making socks from the toe up. We’ll cover Judy’s magic cast-on, boomerang and gusset heels, and Jenny’s super stretchy bind-off. At the end of this workshop you will feel confident in knitting socks two at a time and from the toe up.

• Learn how to cast on for a pair in the round on circular needles
