MATERIALS - please purchase pattern and materials prior to the first session. We have really wonderful options in the shop!

  • Removable Stitch Markers

HOMEWORK

  • Swatch - With size US 7 needles, cast on 25 stitches and knit in cable pattern for approximately 35 rows. Lightly block your swatch. 
  • If you need help with your swatch, gauge and/or sizing, please come in during our drop in help time on Fridays from 3-5. There is an additional $10 fee for this. 
  • Once you've confirmed your gauge. Cast on 44 stitches. We will start on first WS row in class.

DETAILS

There are so many different types of sweaters - construction, styles and techniques! This sweater is knit from the top down, starting at the shoulders and using short rows to shape the shoulders. Then the back and front will be joined in the round. The dropped shoulder style sleeves are then picked up and worked in the round. The neckband is added last.

Basic sweater knitting OR experience with cabling is recommended, but not required. 

Ages: 18+
Skill Requirements: Knit, purl, knitting in the round, basic pattern reading.
Taught by: Alisha Bright
