Description

Learn how to knit socks! Using a DK-weight sock pattern, Mckenzie will guide you through knitting in small circumferences, knitting a heel flap, turning a heel, doing gusset decreases, toe decreases, and kitchener stitch! In addition to these techniques, you’ll talk about getting the right fit, choosing sock yarn, and any other questions you may have along the way!
