Liz Clarke - Knitting Workshop

I've just stared back at University and gone into my second year of study. We had our first Knitting workshop run by Liz Clarke.

I had a few sessions with her last year and i feel that these sessions really help me further my skills in machine knitting.

The image below is one of the swatches i made with her and in the session it was mainly just about getting used to the machines again after some others hadn't been on them for a while so i was just refreshing myself with just some simples steps shown below ( cast on, change colour, and hold position)


 

After i got used to the machines again i asked Liz if she could help me make a sock heel, as this is something i have been wanting to learn for a while as i would like to have a go at making some socks. 

Below is what i made in the session Liz showed me how to do a heel and this is what it looked like in the end. Its a rough sock shape just so i could see how it would be made.
