What do the knitting pros know that you don't about sweater size and fit? In this class we'll get into the knitty-gritty of why your sweaters so often don't fit and provide the knowledge and tools that will allow you to make sweaters that fit every time. We'll work step-by-step through the planning stages of sweater knitting, from yarn choice, better body measurements, and choosing the right size, to how and where to make adjustments for differences in gauge or differences in size and shaping. You'll learn how to analyze the size of a pattern when it doesn't give schematics, how different arm/shoulder constructions affect fit, and how to change just about anything that's not working for you in a pattern.
Pencil, flexible tape measure. Optional: If you are planning to work a specific sweater pattern, you are welcome to bring it with you to refer to. If you have already knit your swatch, bring that too.
