Magic loop knitting is a technique that every knitter should know. It practically eliminates the need for dpns in projects and is ideal for socks, hats, mittens, sleeves and more! In this class, participants will learn how to knit toe-up socks with a double stranded, yarn-over (YO) short row heel.  Set-up for an afterthought heel will be demonstrated for those who prefer a more traditional sock structure. 

Please note that this is an advanced class and prior sock knitting or working with fine yarn recommended.  

Small class sizes (max 6 people) for the ideal learning environment.
