Product Details

If knitting a Fair Isle sweater is on your dream list, maybe this is the year! The finished project is a traditional, bottom up drop shoulder (or modified drop) cardigan or pullover. To keep class on-target, we will not be doing set in sleeves or yoked sweaters. Start at the beginning with gauge and fit. Learn the little things that make a big difference so that you end up with a sweater that fits and looks like a million bucks! Color selection will be done prior to class. If help is needed, Joan can help you in the shop by appointment. This is not a beginner class - you should already know how to knit with two colors at a time.

Day/Date/Time:
Wednesdays, 2/19, 2/26, 3/5, 3/19, 4/2, 4/16, 4/30 and 5/14/2025 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm EST/EDT. This class meets 8 times via Zoom.

Required Supplies/Equipment/Books:
Jumper weight Shetland yarn for sampling and knitting your sweater, pattern if not making your own, buttons if making a cardigan, locking stitch markers, some method of tracking your progress (magnet board, see-thru repositionable tape, Knit Companion), and your standard knitting tool kit.

Prerequisite:
Must know how to knit with two colors in one row and be accustomed to working with color knitting charts

Pre-Class Prep:
Two options:
1) Select a published pattern, purchase the yarn, including enough to make a swatch. Knit a swatch in pattern that is at least 6” x 6”. Record unblocked and blocked gauge.
2) If you will design your own, knit a swatch in pattern that is at least 6” x 6” using your selected colors. Record unblocked and blocked gauge. Purchase yarn when you have settled on your colors.
