There's no simple luxury quite like a pair of hand knitted socks - it's true.
Find out how to knit your own pair in this two-part workshop. Your feet will be thanking you for many a winter to come!
Over the course of two friendly classes, you will go through everything you need to know so you can knit your own socks from the toe-up. The first workshop will cover:
There are four weeks between sessions to give you plenty of time to work your way from the toe of your sock all the way up to the heel turn, ready for the second class. This will involve:
There will be plenty of tea and snacks on hand. With yarn, needles and patterns all included - all you need to do is bring yourself. Let's get to it!
Please note: you'll need to be a confident beginner to sign up for this experience, as you'll be expected to be able to work basic stitches like knit and purl. It would be helpful, but not essential if you also know how to work basic increases and decreases.
Sorry, there are currently no dates available for this experience, but we’re expecting more to be added really soon!

I had a fabulous time at this workshop. Jacki is a brilliant teacher and, alongside Meg of No Frills Knitting, provided excellent resources to make these lovely socks. I came away feeling inspired and excited to put my new skills to use. I would recommend to everyone who has a little experience with knitting, as Jacki's patience and clear style of communication help all students feel supported. For more seasoned knitters, there are skills lots of handy tips and tricks to find out too!
Jacki was an amazing, enthusiastic teacher. A tricky sill to learn but she had an abundance of patience. Ably helped by Meg, the equally enthusiastic host. Her shop was unknown to my friend and but is one we shall be visiting from now on. A knitter’s heaven
