SUMMARY:Sock Knitting Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join Catherine to learn how to knit socks! \nIn this workshop we will discover the various ways of knitting socks and work through a small size sock to practise the techniques. By the end of the workshop you will know how to knit a basic top-down sock\, including techniques for turning the heel. You will also be familiar with some of the other approaches to sock construction and be ready to dive into the wide world of warm feet! During the workshop we will use two circular needles to knit in the round\, but if you are already familiar and comfortable with either magic loop or using double pointed needles\, you are welcome to use these instead. \nWhat do I need to bring? \nPlease bring DK weight yarn (any wool or synthetic fibre) and two separate 3mm circular needles (see note above if you would like to use other needles). A printed pattern will be provided. \nPrevious experience required? \nAimed at anyone already comfortable with knit and purl stitches. Techniques used in the workshop will include knitting in the round using two circulars\, decreases\, picking up stitches and slipped stitches. These will all be explained by Catherine. \nAbout our tutor \nCatherine learnt to knit as a new mum\, desperate for something to do where she could see progress. It worked\, and a decade on she still loves the ability to create fabric out of yarn\, to play with colour\, texture and pattern\, and to fit garments to bodies of any shape and size. She has published several knitting patterns of her own and also enjoys spinning her own yarn. \n

It is a fun way to expand your creative textile practice and these skills will inspire you to do more once you leave! \nWhat do you need to bring? \nYour sewing machine which must have a free machine embroidery foot. Please can we ask everyone to test this prior to attending the workshop. \nThread\, a dark colour works best\, for example navy blue. \nFabric scissors\, paper scissors\, pen\, pencil and a 30cm ruler (optional\, you are welcome to borrow ours) \nFeel free to bring your own ‘stash’ of fabrics which you feel may be suitable for your piece. This is optional but some people like to bring a keepsake or treasured fabric to incorporate into the work (optional) \nPrevious experience required  \nYou will need to be familiar with your machine and how to use it’s basic features such as winding and inserting the bobbin\, threading up your machine and needle\, changing the feet and needle and sewing a straight stitch. This session is not suitable for complete sewing machine beginners however\, you do not need to have any experience of free machine embroidery. \nAbout our tutor \nI am a mixed media and textile artist living in the Howardian Hills where I take much of my inspiration as well as the North of England. I work mainly in recycled fabrics and love to depict the local landscapes\, seascapes and woodlands. I see the landscape in patterns and use this to add perspective to my work as well as layering and blending techniques. \nI exhibit and teach in a number of locations and took part in Landscape Artist of the Year 2022 on Sky Arts.
