We love online learning. Especially when we're able to bring great instructors like Kate Atherley right to you. Using Zoom as our online videoconferencing platform, you can take this class from anywhere.
What it's All About
Liberate yourself from pattern books! Make a sock that’s perfect, for any size foot, and in your choice of yarn. Kate will show you how to measure and identify your fit needs, and create a perfectly fitting sock, no matter what the requirements. She’ll share templates for both top-down and toe-up socks, so you can work them exactly the way you want.
We'll be holding our next 120-minute session with Kate on Thursday, May 30 starting at 3:00 pm PDT, 4:00 pm MDT, 5:00 pm CDT, 6:00 pm EDT, 7:00 pm ADT.
Skill level: intermediate; students must have knitted a few pairs of socks.
Do you have any specific questions that you'd like Kate to address in class? Please send an email to cynthia@yarniversity.ca and she'll send them in advance. Time will be given for asking questions during the workshop as well.
