Universal Toe-Up Socks
2 session(s) - 2 hrs - $30 -- Includes pattern!
Intermediate level class
Many knitters prefer to knit socks from the toe-up because they're easier to try on and you'll never run out of yarn. This pattern is actually a worksheet that works off your gauge. You'll learn a provisional cast-on and a short-row toe and heel. You may use any needle method.

PRIOR TO CLASS: Purchase 1 ball of Ty-Dy Wool. Bring needles.
HOMEWORK: Make a gauge swatch. Sara will help you measure it.
