Easy Gansey Sweater



A Gansey is a traditional British Isle fisherman's sweater which is tight fitting and knit with fingering weight yarn on fine needles but for this sweater we will be using a worsted weight yarn and appropriately sized needles. It features knit/purl patterns, underarm gussets, and no seams! Body length and shape will be modified for a custom fit. Extra class will be offered for $25.00 if needed. Students must commit to keeping up with the class. This is an advanced beginning class and students must have knitted at least one sweater before.
