a range of heels and toes, cast ons and bind offs. The
destination? A personalised ‘itinerary’ to guide future sock
knitting adventures.
MATERIALS REQUIRED (students to bring):
• Needles: 3.75mm circular knitting needle with 80cm
circumference or DPNs
• Yarn: 100g ball/cake of DK sock yarn (NB a 100g ball/
cake is sufficient to make the mini sock in class and complete a full size pair using
the recipe designed in class)

This workshop is suitable for novice knitters who are keen to learn how to make
