Two Saturdays, November 7 & December 5, 2026, from 2:30 - 4:30 pm Do you have cold feet? How about really cold feet? Don’t worry. It’s not you. It’s your socks! In this beginning sock class, you will learn how to make a cushy, thick pair of slipper socks. Vanessa thinks this is one of the best ways to learn how to make socks—no tiny needles or skinny sock yarn here. Not quite immediate gratification, but thicker yarn and bigger needles lets the new sock knitter focus on the principles of sock knitting without things getting too fiddly. In this two-part class, students will learn how to make a slipper anklet sock using either worsted or heavy worsted/aran weight yarn. Skills taught: · Short rows (used to turn the heel on a top down, heel flap style sock) · Decreases (left and right leaning) · Picking up stitches · Kitchener stitch Skill Level: Intermediate. Students MUST be able to cast on, knit, purl, and knit in the round (using DPNs, magic loop, or two circulars). *In order to be ready for the second class, you will have to do your knitting homework and finish the legs of your socks at home - knee socks would be very ambitious, so we suggest you keep the leg short. Class will be capped at 8 students. A list of materials will be provided after registration. All students receive 10% off class materials purchased in-store. Registration fees are non-refundable. Cancellations must be made at least 3 days before the first class for STORE CREDIT ONLY.
