Simple Sweater Class: A Fun First Sweater

Join us for another wonderful sweater class. This versatile knit can be made in cozy wool, or a lighter cotton/linen blend with shorter sleeves for summer styling. Hadley will walk you through the steps of this basic sweater construction. This will be a fun first sweater class, and great for anyone who likes the camaraderie and momentum of group knitting. As with any sized garment, gauge is important!

Students must create swatch(es) prior to class and come prepared to cast on with yarn and needles necessary to meet gauge. Students should be proficient in the basics of knitting (comfortable knitting, purling, working in the round, and following written directions) before taking this class. Hadley is the instructor for this class.
