Description: We will take the Jethro Cardigan into cooler weather for fall and winter wear by focusing on wools and warmer yarn options. This class will cover beginning crochet, advanced knitting skills, along with fit and finishing techniques. Participants will be expected to know how to knit at the advanced beginner level. Retro and charming granny squares make up the majority of the sweater. The sleeves, hems, button edges and cuffs are knitted.
