Toe-Up Socks?? Are you ready to turn your knitting upside down?
You’ll learn the fun Eastern/Turkish cast-on and the German short row heel.
This class is for knitters who have mastered the basics of cast on plus knit, purl, increases, and decreases. It will help if you know a little about sock knitting, but it’s not required. You’re going to LOVE this method of knitting socks!
Materials needed:
NEEDLES: US size 2 (2.75 mm) double pointed needles, set of 5, at least 6 inches long
YARN: 100 gram of sock yarn (also called fingering weight or super fine or size 1) I’m using Patons Kroy Socks (75% washable wool, 25% nylon). PLEASE have your yarn balled and ready to use!
ALSO: stitch markers, scissors, row counter, a pen or pencil for taking notes
