The perfect late summer transitional piece!

Pyramid Cloud by Minimi Knit Design is an all-weather wardrobe staple with a fascinating construction.
Pyramid Cloud is worked seamlessly from the top down with an elegant knitted button band and a striking yoke made with smart increases. The button side can be worn in the front as a traditional cardigan, or at the back of the body for an unexpected detail.
Although this sweater is designed to be short sleeved, Karen will offer options for adjusting the fit to include 3/4 and full length sleeves for those interested in making a more cold-weather appropriate option.
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 in the round and in small circumference, how to knit and purl, how to read a basic pattern
What you'll learn in this class: Top-down sweater construction with a unique yolk, how to create a button-hole, optional: adjusting a pattern to add sweater sleeves
