A Couple of New Classes Added to the Fall Schedule

Class
Getting Started Knitting Socks   (Beth) Three 2 hour class - $60 plus supplies
Date & Time
Thursday, November 12, 26 & December 3         9:30am – 11:30 am
Description
I love knitting socks. They are a small portable project, perfect for the commuter knitting, hockey mom or waiting at the doctor. The sock yarns available are out of this world in terms of fiber varieties and colour. In this class you will learn a good basic sock.
Prerequisites
Intermediate
 

Class
Short Row Heel   (Beth) One 2 hour class - $20 plus supplies
Date & Time
Thursday, December 10  9:30am – 11:30 am    
Description
Many sock yarns, especially computer dyed faux Fair Isle, are best knit with a short row heel so the beautiful patterning is not disrupted by the increased number of stitches necessary for the heel flap and gusset style heel. I was not fond of the look of short rows heels until I discovered Cat Bordhi’s Sweet Tomato short row heel. It is perfect to preserve the integrity of patterning sock yarns.
Prerequisites
This is not a learn to knit socks class, heel technique only.
