- In stock, ready to ship
- Inventory on the way
Make your first sweater with the guidance of Unwind’s amazing knitting teacher, Carrie Turner!
We will be making PetiteKnit's Anker's Summer Shirt, (pattern sold separately), a simple top down, in the round, classic raglan tee. You will learn how to get the best fit for your body so you can feel great in your finished garment! Plant based fibers like Sandness Garn Line or Ritual Dyes Undine DK will help keep you cool and stylish; once your Anker is completed, you will have a wardrobe staple to take you through at least three seasons.
If making a garment has seemed daunting to you, no worries! This is a great beginner class; Carrie will guide you step by step in all your decision making to ensure that your finished garment not only fits will but will be something you will love for years to come. You will leave this class with confidence and pride!
Class dates and topics are:
June 1st: yarn selection and swatch making. We will cover how to get your perfect fit as we study your gauge and desired amount of ease.
June 8th: how to understand your pattern; casting on and joining in the round. You will build the yoke, and we'll share tips and tricks for neat ribbing.
June 15th: Fit check & modifications; separating for body.
