Hip 2 B Sq, 10

This week Linda went over the heel of the sock showing us how to turn the heel. There are two corrections to the sock pattern under “Turn heel.”
Row 3 should be Sl 1, P across to TWO STITCHES before…
Row 4 should be, Sl 1, K across TWO STITCHES before…

Next Week
We will go over almost all the sock pattern including the Kitchener stitch.

We will also receive the Toe Up sock pattern which calls for a short row heel instead of a flap heel. Bring regular sock yarn, appropriate needles, tape measure, and a ruler. We will be taking off our shoes for measurement.

The patterns for the Christmas knit ornaments will also be given to us next week so we can work on them during the Thanksgiving break.

Schedule
There will be no class on Thanksgiving Day. Our last class for the first trimester will be Dec 3. I think our Christmas knit ornament to swap is due that day. Also, don’t forget about our octopus/jellyfish challenge that was mentioned earlier.

The second trimester will begin on Dec 10, and we will meet on Dec 17. There will be a two-week break in December for the holidays, and we will resume the first Thursday in January.
