We will use a simple pattern, the Gramps Cardigan by Tin Can Knits. This course takes knitters through all the techniques required to make a seamless sweater from the top down. We suggest knitters make a baby or child size first, so you can complete the project during the course.
Materials: Pattern is required for the Ravelry pattern for this class from the shop HERE or from Ravelry HERE. You’ll need enough yarn to make your sweater (we’ll help you calculate how much you’ll need), needles, stitch markers, and a tapestry needle.
