Make the sweetest socks, the Gelato Socks from Stone Knits! We'll learn top down sock construction, ladder back jacquard for long floats, and a ribbed heel flap. Students should confidently knit and purl in the round and have experience with small needles and reading patterns. Students with less experience can skip the colorwork.

Instructor:

Amie Palmer
