Knitting socks isn't difficult, but it's sometimes hard to understand. This class will introduce you to sock architecture, knitting with double pointed needles and the Kitchener stitch.
Working with DK weight yearn, we'll cast on fewer stitches on small (but not teeny tiny) needles. You should be able to complete one top-down anklet sock within the class time (there will be homework!) and feel prepared to complete the pair on your own.
