STYLE A KNIT TO SUIT YOU
How to style a garment to suit you whether you are small, large or extra large

How often do you look through knitting magazines and wish that one had a different neckline or that was shorter, possibly not knitted in the yarn you would like to use, or the sleeves are too long. It can go on forever, however if you were to attend this workshop all those problems would disappear.

Sharon would help you through the process that will help you overcome all these things that have always stopped you going for a specific design in the past. You will look at shape that suits you, come up with a standard measurement guide especially for you.

You would need to bring a couple of garments that either, you don't like or you do, that fit's well or doesn't (these don't have to be knitted). You would learn the use of gauge and stitches, shaping and necklines that would all go to make the perfect sweater for you.
