We have a new class this year. Dying Sock Blanks.
In a nutshell, a sock blank is a knitted rectangle designed to be unraveled and then knit into socks, scarves, shawls, mittens, or anything you would knit with fingering weight yarn.
They look a little bit like an unfinished scarf with live, loose stitches at each end. Sock blanks are machine knitted with undyed yarns and then dyed. Gradients, stripes and random splashes of colour are all popular designs for sock blanks.
Take a look at this blog post from Felicia at SweetGeorgia Yarns for ideas of what you can make with sock blanks.
We still have room in all the workshops but don't wait too long. There is a limit on the number of people we can have in the dye workshops.
