PhotoSocks on Circular Needles
Three 2-hour sessions · $60
(project materials not included)

Experience Level: Advanced Beginner

Class description: Learn the basics of sock knitting using circular needles (rather than the traditional double-pointed needles). Special techniques include the Norwegian Cast-on and the Kitchener stitch.

Supplies needed:
Yarn — If you are an experienced sock knitter, you can choose a fingering-weight yarn, or the yarn of your choice. Students without prior sock experience will require a worsted-weight yarn.

Needles — Skacel Addi Turbos are highly recommended (their cable design make this sock knitting technique much easier than other circular needles).
· For fingering-weight yarn: Two sets of 24" length size 1 or 2
· For worsted-weight yarn: Two sets of 24" size 3 or 4

Stitch markers and darning needle

Patterns provided for fingering, sport and worsted-weight socks

Experience Levels

Beginner: Student can do basic knit and purl but still feels a little shaky.

Advanced Beginner: Student can do basic knit and purl and feels more comfortable knitting and is looking to do something beyond scarves.

Intermediate: Student can follow knit patterns with little assistance.

Advanced: Student is familiar with most knitting techniques.

Experience levels are listed for your information. In no way do I want to limit you to a "label." If you really want to do something, your particular skill level should not limit you. It may be more difficult, but with a small class size or private lesson, and going at a slower pace, nothing is impossible.
