Embroidery and Applique for Socks

Embroidery is not just for hankies any more!  Socks are a fun item to embellish with some delicate or playful stitchery, and bits of leftover sock yarn are perfect for embroidering with.  Use your skills to spruce up a sad sock or camouflage repairs (or goofs).  We will cover ten good stretchy stitches that work well on knits, and explore applique techniques using felt and jersey fabrics, or recycled sweaters.
