Are you terrified of turning a heel?  Panicked at the prospect of picking-up stitches?  Doubtful about double points?

You'll learn each step of knitting a top-down sock on double-pointed needles as you make your first sock.  In Part A you will learn to cast-on, rib, and make the leg portion of your sock.  In Part B you will turn a heel, knit the foot part of your sock, and stitch up your toe.  From there you'll have the know-how to follow most any sock pattern, so you can make a whole wardrobe of wonderful, warm, wooly socks.

Prerequisite skills:  cast on, knit stitch, purl stitch

Supply list:

- Ann Norling #12 basic adult sock pattern

- Either fingering DK or worsted-weight yarn

- Appropriate double-point needles

Fairisle Colorwork

Due to time and material constraints, we have decided to change the content of this class to an easier-to-manage mitten.  Download your free pattern from Ravelry -- Newfie Mitten.  These are adult-size and can be completed by the holidays.  We hope you'll still consider joining us for Colorwork.  Call the shop if you have any questions.

Prerequisite skills:  cast on, knit stitch, purl stitch

Supply list:

- Worsted weight yarn (two contrasting colors or one solid and one verigated, 100-yards of each)

- Double-pointed or two circular needles (appropriate to your yarn)
