Sweater Startup: In The Round



If you want to make your first sweater or hat but have never knitted in the round, come learn how!  Using circular needles, we will cover how to cast on, join, and work in the round with ribbing and increases just like you would for a seamless sweater or a hat.  You will also learn how to avoid twisting your cast on and how to tell if you have accidentally flipped your work inside out.  This is the perfect jump start for that sweater or hat class you have wanted to take!

*** Cancellation Policy:  We know you are excited to take a class. It's going to be awesome! A lot of effort goes into our classes -- scheduling, promoting, and preparation by our incredible instructors. For this reason, we cannot guarantee refunds for classes cancelled within 72 hours of the start of the class. Yes, we know sometimes things come up; we get it. If you must cancel, we will attempt to fill your spot in the class. Out of respect for our instructors' preparation efforts, if we can't fill the seat we will not make a refund. Thank you for your understanding. ***
