In this class you will take a 64 or 72 stitch circular pre-knit tube of knitting and learn how to mark where to cut into your knitting to put in heels, toes, and second sock. You will also learn how to knit the cuffs and heels. By the end of this workshop you will feel confident measuring your tube of knitting to create a pair of socks to fit your desired recipient. If you have ever wanted to be a sock knitter but haven’t liked the slog of knitting legs and feet of socks, this is a great way to have a completed pair of socks without having to knit the whole thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSummer Quarter session:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJune 27 -- 10:00 AM-12:00 PM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkills you will learn:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLearn how to measure, mark and cut a sock tube. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLearn how to pick up stitches and decrease to create heels and toes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkills you already need to have:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBasic knitting in the round, decreasing \u0026amp; picking up stitches, kitchener stitch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials to bring to class:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA sock tube (this can be purchased in store before June 19, 2026, you will need to choose either a 64 or 72 stitch option) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingering weight sock yarn to knit the heels, toes, and cuffs of the sock.
