Knit a Cardigan Class (4 Sessions)

Make yourself a comfy cardigan! This is a sweater knitting class that will teach you the basics of knitting a seamless, raglan sleeve cardigan. We'll use worsted/aran weight yarn and work from the top down, so you can make your sweater any length. You can also add buttonholes and buttons if you want a button front sweater. You will learn how to read a sweater pattern, how to select the proper size for your desired fit, how to separate stitches for different parts of the sweater, and how to pick up stitches. You will work increases and decreases using garter and stockinette stitches, and you will knit the sleeves in the round using DPNs, a short circular needle or the magic loop method. We will be using Tin Can Knits' free "Harvest" cardigan pattern for this class.

NOTE: In order for students to have enough time to work outside of class, sessions will be held every other week. Please be sure to check all four dates against your schedule.

**PREREQUISITES:** You must already be able to confidently cast on, knit, purl, join and work in the round, and bind off. Experience with shaping (increasing/decreasing) is helpful, but not required. This class is intended for individuals aged 18 or older.

**PATTERN:** The pattern for this class is free--download your copy here: https://tincanknits.com/pattern/flax?g=12. You will receive an email one week before class with information about project supplies and instructions for knitting a gauge swatch.
