Fastest Sock Knitter
Fastest Sock Knitter
Are you a fast knitter? Do you think you’re faster than most of your friends? Do you think it would be fun to find out? Come and compete in the Marketplace for the Fastest Sock Knitter Challenge.
We’re holding qualifying heats in Demo Area #2 on:
- Friday between 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
- Saturday between 12:00 pm - 1:00pm
Knitters with the fastest times will square off in the finals on Sunday at 12:15 pm (also in Demo Area #2).
To compete:
- Sign up for a spot at Registration (on a first-come, first-serve basis).
- Bring a sock (or mock sock) in progress, with 60 stitches, in the round, on the needles of your choice, as well as a small quantity of yarn in a contrasting colour.
- We’ll have some loaners available, but you might want your own rig.
Compete, or just watch—we’ll find the fastest sock knitter at Sock Summit.
