Sock Knit-Along

Beginning in January, some participants at SnB began a Sock-Knit-Along to learn the techniques of making socks. Some have finished now while others are well on their way. Experienced sock knitters smile when, upon completion of a first sock novices who first thought such an endeavor would be impossible, realize it really is easy and they can't wait to make more socks!

If YOU'RE interested in learning how to create a certain project/item or want undertake a specific technique in any type of stitching, SnB is the place to come. You'll always find lots of willing mentors who can help you get past your stitching "blocks" and on the road to new stitching adventures. Best of all, there's no pressure and it's FREE!

If you have a suggestion for a new knit-or-crochet-along, please let us know. . .
