Malcom’s Blanket Digital Pattern

Ksenia guides us through a handknit socks workshop featuring three unique cabled patterns — so all knitters, intermediate to advanced will have a cozy sock pattern that is perfectly comfortable for both their feet and their skill level. While this is an intermediate-level workshop, beginners will be ready for the challenge as we’ve included the materials and guides you need to be able to knit your own cozy socks.

Our workshop is focused on how to work with double-pointed needles (five!) to learn sock construction and to knit a pair in tandem. The knitting technique we’re honing in on is cabling with all of it’s beautiful twists, turns and texture.

This workshop includes: 

• A detailed, digital workshop by Ksenia Naidyon featuring three cozy knit cabled sock patterns
• A live Maker Chat Q&A for our community to join in creative conversation
• Tools and materials from artisan suppliers, curated for you, by Ksenia

The tools & materials included in this kit:

• 5 beechwood double pointed needles
• 5 stitch markers
• Cable needle
• Tapestry needle
• Double sided stitch holder
• 2 skeins of morning fog yarn
• 1 skein of white yarn
• Retractable tape measure

We can’t wait to see what you create!
