In this 90-minute workshop, you’ll learn the foundational skills needed to knit a seamless, top-down raglan cardigan using the Carlisle Cardigan pattern by Tara-Lynn Morrison. You’ll explore the anatomy of a raglan cardigan, and techniques including:  increasing, picking up stitches, and finishing neatly—all while working at a comfortable pace that builds your confidence for larger sweater projects.

You’ll also enjoy the instant gratification of working with a cozy super bulky-weight yarn!

You’ll leave with the skills to confidently continue your cardigan at home, and if you’d like more support, you’re always welcome to join one of our Quick Help or Bring Your Own Project Knitting classes throughout the week!
