So you\u2019ve knit around the world and back in scarves, shawls, mittens, and cozies, but never made yourself a sweater? Maybe you\u2019re a newer knitter who is ready to take the plunge after a few smaller projects? Or what about you knitters who only make things for other people and never for yourself? Come one, come all to Mary Elizabeth Scott\u2019s (maryscotthuff.com<\/a>)<\/span> newest knitting adventure\/party: A Fearless Sweater!<\/p>\n

In this four-session class, you\u2019ll knit the “Rhubarb” sweater, a design Mary created especially for first-time sweater-makers. “Rhubarb” works up quickly in worsted-weight yarn, from the bottom up, with minimal finishing. With Mary\u2019s help, each student will create a personal knitting recipe that will lend confidence to future sweater adventures. Students can create their own adventure with the center panel: a cable, lace pattern, or knit\/purl pattern.<\/p>\n

Some skills covered include: Determining and working with your own gauge; substituting a cable pattern; seamless top-down sleeves; Japanese short rows; measuring your body for drop-shoulder designs; understanding garment ease; adding buttons and button loops.<\/p>\n

Level:<\/strong> Intermediate. You must be able to cast on, cast off, knit, purl, increase, decrease.<\/p>\n

Materials:<\/strong> Worsted-weight yarn in the following amounts: X-small 1,000 yards. Small: 1,200 yards. Medium: 1,400 yards. Large: 1,600 yards. X-Large: 1,800 yards. NOTE: it’s a good idea to get more yarn than you think you’ll need, for making your gauge swatch and in case you want to make a longer sweater. We have many lovely worsted-weight yarns in the shop; call us for a FaceTime tour if you can’t stop in. Also: 16″ and 24″ circular needles US size 7; tapestry needle; stitch markers; and five\u00a0 \u00be\u201d buttons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
