New Online Class: How to Fit Your Knits « »
I’ve developed a new online knitting class, at the suggestion of many of the 430+ members on my online Knitting Studio site. The class is called “How to Fit Your Knits” and is based on a workshop that I have taught in person many times. The class will be held on my Ning.com site, starting a few days after New Year’s, to give us all time to enjoy the holidays before we start this class.
This is the most intensive class that I will have taught online so far, and I’m incredibly excited to be able to offer it. I’m going to keep the class size relatively small for the first run, so if you have been itching to take this class, be sure to sign up early to hold your spot.
DESCRIPTION:
How to Fit Your Knits January 4 – February 4
In this four-week class, you will learn how to examine any
printed knitting pattern, knit flat or in the round, whether top
down, or bottom up, and determine whether its shaping will work for
you. You will learn to add custom shaping, based on your own body
measurements (or those of any friend or family member) to any
commercial knitting pattern.
This is not a “design your own sweater” class, but you will
learn the fundamentals of fit, shaping, taking proper figure
measurements, and doing the math that will help you to create
knitted garments that actually fit.
The class will take place over four weeks, and you will have
24-hour access to class materials during that time. You will be
able to work at your own pace, with the help of forum discussion,
live chat, video instruction, and PDF handouts.
Class Fee: $65
