Materials Needed Page

Thank you for joining in....

This pattern is a PERFECT first sweater to knit. You will learn circular knitting construction and assembly,  starting off by knitting a sleeve to check your knitting gauge. We will talk a lot about careful finishing so your sweater looks great. This class will span 3 months, and if you knit every day, you can finish it within that time frame.  Here is a message board set up to keep us all connected between meets where you can ask questions (you'll have to create a free account with Ravelry to access it):

There are more classes available once this class is over, so you will not be abandoned!

If you have any questions

You will need the pattern, the yarn plus these needles and supplies.
