Class Description: Colorful, round-yoked sweaters are super hot this year! Make one yourself in 3 sessions! You will learn stranded colorwork (Fair Isle), how to “speed swatch” in the round, and short-row shaping using the German short row method - all in a cute little baby (or teddy bear!) sweater! You'll be ready to translate your new skills to make a full size garment!!
