Customizing Sweater Patterns

Skills Required: Must know how to knit, purl, cast on, bind off. A solid knowledge of the math of gauge required. Basic sweater pattern knowledge is helpful.

Make every pattern your own. How many of us look at a pattern in a book or magazine, and immediately start thinking about how we would like to do it differently. Learn the simple math to change basic sweater elements. Using a simple pattern as a base, we will work through changing a crew neck to a V neck, changing the sleeve length, adding waist shaping and more. Learn how working a sweater in a different gauge can be to your advantage.

Materials / Bring to Class: calculator, ruler, paper and pencil
