Lisa Ross – Step Into Sock Knitting

Thursday, August 6, 2026 @ 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Overview

Have you been wanting to “step” into sock knitting? It’s not as hard as it seems!

This class will walk you through the basics of a top-down heel flap and gusset sock to get a comfortable fit for your feet. We will explore needle options that best suit your knitting style, then cast-on tiny versions to learn the general construction of a top-down sock.

I’ll share my all-time favorite cast-on that looks great and fits even better. Most importantly, we will establish the crucial knowledge of achieving a perfect fit every time, with tips and tricks to help along the way. By the end of this
class, you’ll be able to tackle any top-down sock pattern in your queue with exceptional results.
