Class Details:

Have you ever wanted to make a seamless sweater? Would you like to make a sweater and not worry about the fit and the amount of yarn? In this workshop I’ll take you on a trip from the top downward. We will practice various top-down methods of making garments that enable you to try your sweater on from time to time to check the overall fit while you’re knitting. We’ll discuss different sweater constructions: raglan, contiguous, and other seamless garments knit from the top down as well as some useful tricks.

Technique Requirements: knitting in the round, basic knowledge of sweater construction

Homework:

None

Supplies to Bring:

Notepad and pen, knitting yarn and matching circular and double-pointed needles (DK or worsted weight will work best), safety pins or locking stitch markers, darning needle, crochet hook (same size as knitting needles) and some waste yarn.
