About the event

Learn to Knit Socks Step by Step
🧶 What You’ll Learn:
Session One Half Day: Foundations & Getting Started
We'll begin with a relaxed discussion to demystify:
The anatomy of a sock
How to measure the foot correctly
Knitting in the round using circular needles and DPNs (double pointed needles)
The best yarns and fibres for comfortable, durable socks
Then it's time to cast on!
Start the ribbed cuff
Begin knitting the leg of the sock
Homework: Continue knitting the leg at home, ready to tackle the heel in the next class

Session Two – Full Day: Mastering the Heel & Foot
This full day session dives into the trickier but oh-so-satisfying bits:
Knit the heel flap using two needles
Work the clever heel turn (it's like sock magic!)
Learn how to pick up stitches for the gusset
Reduce stitches gradually to shape the foot
Homework: Continue knitting the foot at home, stopping about 2 inches before the toe.

Session Three – Half Day: Toes, Techniques & Next Steps
Learn toe decreases
Use the Kitchener stitch to create an invisible seam at the toe
Finish your sock – and guess what? Only two ends to sew in!
We’ll wrap up with a discussion on:
How to make matching socks
Simple ways to add lace, cables, and textures to your next pair
Resources and tutorials for continuing your sock knitting journey at home
Homework: Get that second sock on your needles and start matching them up like a pro!

👣 Who is this course for?
Perfect for adventurous beginners with basic knitting skills. If you can knit and purl, we’ll take you the rest of the way!

Spaces are limited – book now and walk away (literally!) with a handmade sock and the skills to make many more.
