Sock Class

Yesterday was my first foray into teaching a knitting class. I was only a little nervous. Having The Ninja in my class really helped to calm my nerves. I'm really glad she was there.
It was a fun group.

There were four students: The Ninja, a mom and her daughter and a lady who had been knitting for a while but wanted to expand her horizons. I think they enjoyed it.


Here's what I had them make:

It's a tiny sock! Teensy Tiny! The colours are off. Of course!

Here's another photo - to establish scale...

    Great idea to do mini socks for a class. Instant gratification. Love making socks they are how I taught myself to knit.
    Oh! Meeting Neil Young very cool.
    Dogs are so hard to read as they hid their emotions so well... :-)

    That tiny little sock is hilarious, I LOVE it. Colour is great too. I am about to… eventually… knit my first pair of socks. May be I should start off small. Great blog.
