About the event
In this workshop you will learn to knit a sweater on a circular needle, top down, in 1 piece. You will be given a pattern for a simple raglan sweater, but you can also bring your own, provided the technique is the same (in the round, top to bottom). To be able to go home with a (almost) finished sweater at the end of this series, you will also have to continue knitting at home between classes. Below you can consult the content of the various lessons. For this workshop you must be able to knit and purl.
Lesson 1: Choosing wool, going over the pattern, knit a swatch
Lesson 2: Cast on, knit the collar, short rows and starting raglan
Lesson 3: Divide body and sleeves, continue knitting on body
Lesson 4: Knitting sleeves
Lesson 5: Finishing
1 lesson of 2 hours and 4 lessons of 2.5 hours
Maximum 6 adults (16+)
When? Wednesday evening 9, 16, 23 and 30 March and 20 April from 19h15 to 21h45
