Gingersnap Cardigan -
Time to put your skills to work! We will make a toddler- sized (1T) cardigan to cover the basics. In these three sessions, we will manage color changes and learn some basic increases and decreases to shape the neckline and sleeves. We’ll make eyelet buttonholes and learn to pick up stitches for the collar. We’ll learn to sew seams. And it’ll all happen quick because the finished sweater is so adorably small!
