Either cranked on a sock machine or hand knit, sock tubes are easy ways to use stash and maintain perfect stripes, pooling and pattering on specialty yarns.  But finishing sock tubes can seem tricky or even intimidating.  In this engaging and interactive course, we will discuss all things sock tubes from start to finish.  We will talk yarn choices, sizing, hand knit vs cranked, heel options and placement, toes, cuffs and more.  Participants will be asked to bring a knit or cranked sock tube (instructor will have swatches if participant cannot complete a tube) so we can cut in and knit a heel together!  Attendees will also get a copy of Lindsey’s Simple Shortbread Sock pattern including her signature heel and toe pattern for afterthought socks.
