NEW! INTRO TO FAIR ISLE SOCKS

It's not intarsia and it's not mosaic knitting. It's two-handed knitting with two-color stranding. Here is an opportunity to learn Fair Isle on a small, but challenging, scale. This sock pattern (which was written specifically for this class) will incorporate many Fair Isle techniques and produce a thick, toasty warm pair of socks. Come into LambShoppe and see (and feel!) for yourself. Because we will be focusing on the color-work, a comfort level with sock knitting is a pre-requisite. Students should have made several pairs of top-down socks before taking this class.
