Design and knit your own cozy colorwork socks while mastering double-pointed needles!

Doodles by Pacific Knit Co. uses modular patterns and whimsical colorwork motifs to inspire knitters to create their own unique design. Doodle with Valerie and learn to knit colorwork top-town socks with DK weight yarn…including our new DK mini-skeins from Leading Men Fiber Arts! If you can knit and purl and have knit something in the round (like a hat) and are comfortable working with double pointed needles, you can knit these socks!

During the first week, you’ll start knitting the cuff and learn how the Doodle cards work and how to read charts. During the second week, you’ll pick out a Doodle (or two) and start knitting your colorwork. Beginners can stick with just one or two pattern motifs, while more adventurous knitters can add as much colorwork as they want— even all the way down to the foot! As you progress, you’ll learn how to add the heel and toe, keep an even tension, and secure floats. Knit with DK yarn and US size 5 needles, these socks are surprisingly beginner-friendly and fast to finish!

The Doodle Sock pattern (included in the class) has a range of sock sizes from baby to adult large and you can choose any size you like for the class.
