HAND KNITTING BEGINNERS WORKSHOP

Do you know how to knit and purl, but never made a sock before? Let's discover how to knit a perfect sock every time. You will learn how to make an exactly matching pair and knit socks that look great, last long and are adjusted to the shapes and the sizes of your family and friends. By the end of the course, you will not only know the construction techniques, but also the ways of advancing your socks to the next level and incorporating cables or lace into your pattern. Come to learn new tricks, share your creativity and spend time with the like-minded knitters.
