Saturdays, January 3rd, 10th, 24th, 31st and February 14th and 21st,
from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm
Spend your Winter Satuday mornings with Koryn and Catherine and learn to knit the Dagmar Sweater by Petite Knits. You can choose your preferred style: jacket, sweater, or zipper, for either women's or men's sizes. (Please note that this class will not include zipper installation.)
The first class will focus on the fundamentals of cable knitting to prepare you for your swatch. The following five classes will concentrate on enhancing your sweater knitting skills. The sweater is worked top-down, starting with the back yoke, followed by picking up stitches for the front yoke and knitting the body. Koryn and Catherine will guide you through the processes of knitting cables, sweater construction, and chart reading. This workshop will serve as both a learning experience and a knitting group round table, providing a fun environment to improve your skills!

- Knitting a sweater in pattern
