Class Details:
This class will mainly be focused on the yarn management technique needed to be able to comfortably and successfully work a pair of socks two at a time on one set of needles using the Magic Loop method. Note this is a technique class focusing on yarn management and NOT a “How to Knit Socks” class, I expect students to already have a basic understanding of sock knitting and the Magic Loop Method. We will also discuss the methods of starting a pair of socks two at a time, as well as how to manage working the heels when you get to that part of the project.
Technique Requirements: It is assumed you have a basic understanding of sock construction, including knit/purl; cast on/bind off; increase/decrease; working in the round; have knit a few accessories; short rows
Homework:
None
Supplies for Class:
1 color of worsted-weight yarn split into two balls/cakes and needles size US 7 (4.5mm), in a long (32" or 40") circular for magic loop knitting and DPNs in the same size or smaller. Progress keeper, pen and paper, scissors and tapestry needle.
