Learn how to make your first basic raglan top-down sweater using thrifted, scrappy yarns, new yarn or a mix! Bring as much yarn in different weights as possible to this class, bulkier the better. Paige will show you how to create a “super bulky” yarn to make your first scrappy sweater and play with color to “paint” with yarn. To take this class, you need basic knitting skills – you should already know how to knit/purl in the round and cast on and off.

Pattern:
Please refer to the Kingston Sweater pattern (see Supply List linked above) for all materials. For this sweater, it’s suggested to buy at least one or two skeins of super bulky yarn (suggested yarns are noted in Supply List) for the neck and underarm for maximum comfort.

For the majority of the sweater, we’ll use thrifted yarn of all weights to keep the sweater cost-effective. Bring as many skeins as you can find of various weights, the chunkier the better. It is so fun to collect yarn at thrift stores and garage sales. I’ll show you how to use those yarns to create a super bulky weight yarn and “paint” with yarn!

This sweater pattern is highly modifiable and can be turned into a longer dress or cropped sweater. Sleeves can be shorter or longer, tapered or not tapered with cuffs or no cuffs.
