Thursday 1/30, 2/20, 3/6 + 3/27
3:30pm - 5:30pm
Instructor : Cyndi
Learn stranded colorwork knitting with this incredibly fun sweater project! The design is inspired by the geometric modernist style of 1920’s textile designer Elise Djo-Bourgeois, with its combination of circles, squares and triangles in a mix of pastels and more contrasting colors on a base of white. Seamless and knit in the round from the top down, you will be constantly amused by the changing patterns as you knit! Cyndi will guide you through the whole process and she also happens to be very skilled with helping customers choose color combinations, so she can assist with that as well!
Skill Level : Intermediate (should know how to knit and purl and have some experience reading charts)
