Notions
Tapestry Needle

Here are some tips to keep in mind when you’re knitting colorwork for the first time
• Check your gauge and tension as you’re knitting and try on the socks as you go.
• Notes on gauge, if you have too many stitches you need to go up a needle size. If you don’t have enough stitches you need to go down a size needle.
