Arachne Sock Calculator. Denise's Toe-up Sock. Cybersocks Denise's Toe-up Sock Instructor: Denise Powell We are fortunate to have Denise Powell, workshop and seminar specialist, as our instructor for this series of Cybersocks lessons - the toe-up sock. She starts us off with a preliminary assignment for different type of symmetrical increases so we can learn to make smooth increases in the toe. Materials: You will need: * Yarn of your choice. I am using Paton's Classic Wool and will need 1 100 gm ball to complete the pair of socks. The lessons will also sometimes show a pair I knitted in Koigu Premium Merino, which required two skeins. * A set of double-pointed needles that will produce a nice firm gauge with your chosen yarn.
Why Start Socks from the Toes Up? Don't worry about how many stitches to cast on - the answer is 8 (usually) for the square toe and 4 (always) for the pointy toe. When you start at the toe, you simply make toe increases until the toe section fits the foot. You can try on the sock at any time. Judy's Kick-back Two-color Socks. CybersocksJudy's Kick-back Two-color Socks Instructor: Judy Gibson Introduction You've got a stash full of half and three-quarters skeins of sock yarn, or you've got a DGD who won't wear anything that isn't purple and pink, or you've got a serious fan who needs socks in the team colors, or you've found some luscious yarn in colors you adore but you don't want to have to buy a sweater's worth.
So isn't it time you learned to design your own color-patterned socks? What I want to do in this class is focus on the beginners. You will need to have made socks before, since I won't be covering the basic techniques like how to cast on or how to pick up gusset stitches. Materials You'll need enough yarn to make a pair of socks, in two colors. Any weight yarn that you like to knit with will work. It's better if the yarn you choose has some stretch: wool or acrylic or a blend are fine. See you in class! Class Outline Extra credit: planning a more complex color pattern. Extra credit: the Dutch heel. Argyle Socks. Cybersocks Argyle Sock On-line Socknitting Classes with Edie Eckman Introduction I designed this woman’s argyle to be made in the traditional way, with the ankle and instep knit back-and-forth, and the foot knit in the round. The other Cybersocks classes have allowed you to use the yarn size and needles of your choice and given instructions for making a pattern to fit your foot.
This is somewhat different, as we are constrained by the graph design to use a certain number of stitches. If you think you need to change the size of your sock, use larger or smaller needles rather than changing the number of stitches. However, if you are really intrepid, write your own graph and knit a sock of your own design! As we work together, I will suggest ideas that may make your knitting easier. Argyle Construction It may help to understand the basic construction of an argyle: the ribbing, leg/ankle and instep are knit back and forth, rather than in the round as on most socks.
