FAQs
Yes, this course is designed for intermediate knitters who are comfortable with basic knitting techniques and want to learn colorwork, gauge swatching, and sock construction from the cuff down.
You’ll need circular knitting needles (suitable for the Magic Loop method), sock yarn in main and contrast colors, stitch markers, a tapestry needle, scissors, and a ruler or tape measure.
You’ll learn to knit socks from the top down, including making a gauge swatch, reading colorwork charts, working the Magic Loop method, shaping heels and toes, and finishing techniques like weaving in ends.
No, the course explains the Magic Loop technique step-by-step, so you can learn as you go, even if you haven’t used it before.
Measure around the widest part of your foot, typically at the ball, using a flexible tape measure. Use this measurement to select or adjust your sock pattern for the best fit.
A sock gauge swatch is a small sample knitted in the round to check your stitch and row count per 10 centimeters. It ensures your finished sock will fit as intended.
If your swatch doesn’t match the pattern gauge, adjust by switching to a larger or smaller needle size, then re-knit the swatch until the correct stitch count is achieved.

Excelente metodología, fácil de ejecutar y hermosos trabajos. Muy didáctico para seguir tengo nuevos modelos para realizar. Me encantó.
Loving this course, Charlotte is truly a great teacher and the video quality is great. However as she admitted herself she only recorded one course with Domestika (Introduction to colourwork) and she was not aware of the existence of this course... Is this a rip-off from Domestika to Charlotte to be able so sell a cheaper course without Charlotte's cut?
