- Description
Some knitters get intimidated by tackling socks: In this 90 minute workshop, you will be introduced to heel turning, gussets, and the many, many ways heels can be constructed! Our goal is to have you leave with the confidence to tackle socks using your preferred method (whether or not they are toe up or cuff down!), and if you need additional project support, you can always come back again for Quick Help or in a Bring Your Own Project class, or complete our entire Sock Series and join us for the Anatomy of a Sock, Toesies, and Afterthought Heel workshops!
Please note: Please reference our Class Policy or Help Center for more details on classes, or email classes@michiganfineyarns.com.
Cancellation Policy: For all workshops, please communicate with instructors at classes@michiganfineyarns.com ahead of the date if you’re unable to attend or call the store. Please note that class workshops are non-refundable.

- Yarn + Class Materials: Please bring your toe-up sock pattern and suggested materials. (Note: While you’re encouraged to bring your own needles/notions, we request that yarn used in classes be purchased at MFY.) If you need help planning your project, please let us know! We like this pattern for beginner's toe up socks (and it gives you an option for an afterthought heel if you decide you want to skip that part for now). For yarn we recommend trying The Fibre Co.'s Amble and a pairing it with a contrasting mini for the heels/toes.
