Gauge & Make It Fit!

$70.00

Never make an ill-fitting sweater again!
In this popular Knit Sisu class, you will learn the mysteries behind gauge swatching, why it's important, and what to do if the gauge does not match a pattern. Also, in transferring gauge information to a pattern, you’ll learn the skills and techniques necessary to tailor a sweater pattern specifically to your taste and make it fit every time! 

You’ll leave this class with a lot of new information and confidence, along with a free copy of the Knit Sisu “Make It Fit Guide” as a bonus. I will be showing sample gauge swatches, but feel free to come with your own swatches of different size yarn and needle combinations, and/or any ill-fitting sweaters to examine sizing.

Optional: make a swatch beforehand. Using light-colored DK weight yarn and size US7 or 8 needles, cast on 20 sts, work in stockinette stitch (*knit one row, purl one row, repeat from *) for 2”. Do not bind off.

Day: Wed, Feb 4
Time: 6:00pmEST

This is an online, recorded class. Participants will have access to the recording for 3 months.
