Join Rebecca from WildWestDye for a TwistMeSundae Sock teaching knit-a-long.
TwistMeSundae sock kit contains 225m/ 246y/ 75g of WildWestDye's naturally dyed silk/ merino sport weight yarn, perfect for Spring & Summer socks, and warm feet that like to wear hand knit socks!
Cuff down socks where the leg length is adjusted to ensure you have enough yarn for the length of foot and a mirror matched design, not only the cables, but also the ribbing and stitches used in the lace panel.
We will meet once a week, for four weeks to knit together in this teaching knit-a-long. You will learn all the techniques needed to make these top/ cuff down socks.
You use the following skills whilst making these socks:
Cables and yarn overs
Right Lifted Increase
Standard increases and decreases
Picking up stitches
Kitchener
No worries if you haven't got these skills yet as I'll take you through step by step during the KAL.
And of course we'll chat together about knitting, yarn, colours and anything else too!
To participate you will need to purchase a TwistMeSundae Sock kit from WildWestDye.
Choose your kit here.
