So many of our students have lamented to us that they don't wear their hand knit sweaters because they don't fit just right. During this 90 minute overview workshop you will be introduced to techniques for modifying your sweater patterns to get that custom fit. Our goal is to have you leave with the confidence to tackle sweater sweater pattern modification, and if you need additional project support, you can always come back again for Quick Help or in a Bring Your Own Project class, or complete our entire Sweater Series and join us for the Anatomy of a Top Down Yoke Sweater, Anatomy of a Top Down Raglan Sweater, and Marling workshops!
