Improvers Knitting – Tube Socks

Improvers Knitting – Tube Socks Workshop

On this workshop, Liz will demystify techniques which look complicated, so join us on Friday 29th August for a 2-hour Knitting session, where Improvers will learn to make Tube Socks i.e. socks where you don’t need to turn a heel. You will:

· learn a simple method to cast on at the toe without forming a seam

· master the art of using a long circular needle

· produce a spiralling effect in 3 x 3 Rib

· work a stretchy cast off

Workshop includes 100g James Brett Stonewash DK yarn plus a pattern to take away to continue to create spiral socks for all the family (Inc. small, medium and large sizes).
