Join Kylie's Afterthought Heel workshop to learn how to insert an afterthought heel and toe to a machine-knitted sock tube - cutting down sock making time and still getting the pleasure of hand knitted socks.
The workshop will be 4 hours long and show you how to divide the tube, insert the heel, add a toe box and finish everything off with a beautiful ribbed cuff.
Workshop dates:
·Saturday, October 18th 10am -2pm
·Saturday, October 25th 10am -2pm
We can take a maximum of 8 people for each workshop, so get in quick if you're keen!
The sock tubes, other yarn needed, pattern and heel method recipe will be included in the class price.
Knitting needles and notions will need to be brought or purchased separately ahead of time.
Materials you will need:
• Sock needles: this could be DPNs or long circulars for magic loop size 2mm for looser knitters, 2.25mm for average knitters, or 2.5mm for tighter knitters
• A notebook and pen (optional)
• A tapestry needle • A few stitch markers
The workshop is held in the Shop @ 323 Parnell Road, Parnell. Bathrooms are available with access via the outside of the building. Tea and Water will be available and feel free to BYO-Snack if that would make this workshop even more enjoyable for you.
