New! Chunky Sweater Weather

Adult Course | Registration opens 2/4/2025 7:00 AM MST

Let's cut and sew a sweater from knit fabrics. Patterns will be provided (80's-90's patterns). In the first class we will discuss the basics of cutting out a pattern, understanding sewing fundamentals when working with knit fabrics, i.e selvage, warp and weft, cutting on a grain line. We will also learn how to use the serger sewing machine for a professional finish.

  • Learning Objective:



    You will leave this workshop with a sweater and the knowledge and confidence to make one on your own from any pattern. You will know how to use a serger sewing machine and how to properly use one when working with thicker fabrics. 

  • Required Materials:
    Fabric (instructor will have fabric on hand but you are welcome to bring your own.)
    Sewing supplies (to be provided by instructor)
