Say hello to your next groovy knit!
SIX Wednesdays from 6-8pm on the following dates: Sept 16th, Oct 7th & 28th, Nov 11th, Dec 2nd & 16th
Bea Fischer-Harrison’s Wavelength Cardigan is an out of the box way to take your next steps into learning about knitting construction. This intermediate level project is perfect for the knitter who has a few garments under their belt and feels comfortable with the basics of garment construction, but wants a challenge with a modern twist.
The Wavelength Cardigan is knitted from the top down, with smart details that work into the all-over cable pattern. The collar is knit last and can be adjusted and worked as depicted or replaced with a traditional ribbed folded collar, for those that do not want a polo collar.
This class has been scheduled with more time in between each class to allow for the amount of knitting we will be doing!
What you need to know and be comfortable completing without help from the instructor (or you're willing to learn before this class): How to knit and purl both in the round and flat, how to knit in a small circumference, how to pick up stitches
What you'll learn in this class: How to work cables and read cable charts, how to measure gauge in a cable pattern, (optionally) how to knit a folded collar or polo collar
Required Materials:
We hope you'll consider supporting us by purchasing your materials at Knit 1!
