New Sweater Class at Twist!!

I am excited about teaching this class. There are so many great patterns in this book!

The Basic Seamed Sweater Class is designed to be a first sweater done in pieces. You’ll knit the front, back, and sleeves, then learn to seam them. This class is great for intermediate to advanced knitters who have yet to conquer the sweater. It’s also good for people who have done sweaters, but would like to polish up their finishing skills, or do something a little different. You’ll be choosing a sweater suitable for your skill level from the book, Norah Gaughan Volume 12, which contains several unique and lovely designs.

There will be a consultation session first, during which you will decide on your sweater pattern, size, and yarn. The class is $65, not including the book, which is $14.95, nor the sweater materials.

The consultation will be on Saturday, October 5th, from 12:30 – 1:30 PM.

Then the class will meet every other Saturday: 10/26, 11/02, 11/16, 11/30, and 12/14.

For more information, see the online registration page.
