Beginning Socks Two-at-a-time toe up

Knitting socks from the toe up has lots of benefits.  Our amazing sock instructor, Jenny May likes it because she can use every speck of beautiful yarn without fear of running out. And you'll probably love not having to end the lovely sock knitting process by grafting that toe.  Am I right?  

Using worsted weight yarn and two circular needles, Jenny will show you everything you need to know --rrom that special toe-up cast on through the gusset and heel and up to a beautifully stretchy bind off.  You'll complete a lovely pair of socks from toe to cuff, and really understand what's happening throughout.  All those fiddly parts are so much simpler at this gauge, not to mention faster.  

If you've only every worked socks from the cuff down, you'll enjoy this process,  

Jenny will share with you all the tips and tricks - after this class, you'll be ready for other, more advanced classes that feature finer gauge yarns, fancy stitch patterns, and lots of different techniques.  The sky's the limit, but for success with all that, give yourself a good foundation and get started with toe-up socks here.

You can work your socks two at a time or one at a time. Jenny will show you both ways.
