sweaters From a simple vest to writing your own sweater pattern, these classes will boost your knitting skills and help you make a sweater that fits.
Hoodie Vest First Sweater -- Two for One
Wed.,
Feb. 1, 22 and Mar. 7, 6-8 pm
This easy vest makes a great first sweater -- no sleeves and no seams! It's Two for One because you can choose to knit it in basic stockinette, as shown, or in block stitch, like our sample. You can add a collar instead of a hood. And you can choose buttons instead of a zipper -- or send it off our expert (and very reasonable) finisher. We have a wide range of bulky yarns, and you can knit it for as little as $30 in Encore Bulky, $38.50 for the largest size.

This class is ideal for intermediate knitters who have some previous sweater experience.
