Class Description In this class learn the foundations of cuff down sock knitting. We will explore the construction, fit and benefits of three different heel techniques; Heel Flap & Gusset, Short Row, and Afterthought. You can chose to work on actual socks, making a shortie sock for each heel or just work on heel technique samples. Both options will have adequate instruction and guidance by instructor, but each option will require different length of completion time to be done by you. This class is right for you if you can knit and purl as all other techniques will be taught during class. Open to all ages, but children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by a guardian with basic knowledge of the class material.
