Come along and learn how to dye your own sock blank.

Booking is essential for catering purposes and places are limited.

Bring your friends. Classes are limited to 8 people due to space because we need to spread out.

Please note: We need a minimum amount of participants to run a workshop but if we need to cancel or reschedule we will fully refund your booking.

The workshop starts at 9:30 am for a fun filled dyeing session where you get to choose your own colours and apply them to the sock blank and a light morning tea will be provided.

If you have time to stay at the end of the workshop join us for lunch in the cafe at Vend downstairs. They have a lovely menu where you can choose a variety of food to suit all tastes and dietary requirements. Not included in the workshop price.

What's included in the class

• All equipment used (trays, gloves, masks, spoons, spray bottles, paint brushes, plastic wrap etc)
• 1 x 100 gram undyed knitted sock blank.
• A large selection of dye colours
• Heating and setting source
• Workshop space set up
• Light morning tea
• Bottles of water
• Instruction from your workshop teacher Cheryl who has been an indie dyer since 2008 and holds certification in dyeing from Woolmark Australia and the School of Sweet Georgia.

You will get to take home your beautiful creation ready to dry and cast on into a fab new project that will showcase your creativity from start to finish.

The sock blank is a 100 gram pre-knitted skein of 75% merino 25% Nylon. You can knit straight from the dyed blank or wind it into a ball and knit as usual.

Our pop up shop at Vend is also open for some shopping time so plan those next projects!
