Workshop Description:
Reserve time on one of the Tru-Knit Circular Sock Knitting Machines to crank out a tube from a full skein of yarn (you'll be shocked at how fast you can do this!), then turn that tube into a pair of socks!
Your hour-long session will be one-on-one with one of our CSM experts who will show you how to set up the machine then knit a continuous tube.
The session fee includes your choice of yarn from a select option of colors and pattern instructions on how to turn that tube of knitting into a pair of socks at home!
Previous hand knitting experience is required.
