Laura Nelkin – Knitting a Novus Sweater

Tuesday, September 9, 2025 @ 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Overview

Knitting a Novus Sweater

In this 3-hour class, Laura introduces you to the “Novus” construction — her seamless yet structured modern approach to the side-to-side sweater.

She’ll cover how the construction works, how to modify the construction to fit your body, and any necessary skills needed for the construction, and provide you with a mini version of the concept to play with. In class you will discuss choosing yarn to knit your sweater so you have success! By the end of class you’ll be ready to independently knit your own sweater from the collection.
