Warm and cozy and cute - that's what your feet will be when you put them in hand-knit socks. Inspired, happy and proud - that's how you'll feel when you're the one who knit them by hand. Ready, willing, and able - that's what Craftsy is when it comes to helping you knit socks from the toe up!

Toe-up sock knitting is the hottest thing going, and there's no better teacher than Donna Druchunas. Donna shows you how to start from the toe three different ways, guiding you through sock fitting, heel shaping and stitch pattern choices. You'll learn to use three needle types (double-pointed needles, two circular needles and the magic loop). Even super-experienced sock knitters will discover inspired variations on heels and toes, stitches, yarns, needles and colors. Whether you customize the universal pattern, or tackle one of Donna's three bonus sock designs, you will love the results.

Join the toe-up movement! Never deal with Kitchener stitch again! Join favorite Craftsy instructor Donna Druchunas and adorn your feet with beautiful socks that you made by hand. Your satisfaction is 100 percent guaranteed, and your access to the course never expires. Register for Knit Original Toe-Up Socks today!

Excellent Thumbs up for toe up socks!  May 15, 2012

KarieCz

I love toe up socks. This is an awesome class. Donna does a wonderful job of explaining the process and demonstrating what she is doing. A beginner could easily do this class, and I picked up tips and pointers after making several pairs of socks. So easy to go back and look at a lesson when I need refreshing. Thank you.
