Noosa Sweater Knitting Support Circle: Full Project Kit + Workshop

If you're ready to knit your first jumper, or you'd like guidance on knitting a top-down jumper in-the-round, the Support Circle is perfect for you. If you've knitted a jumper before but would like help with sizing, ease and making changes, the Support Circle is also perfect for you!

I’m so excited to announce our new Sweater Knitting Support Circle held at our Noosa Studio. Come together with a group of like-minded makers and be fully supported as you knit a jumper in-the-round, from the top-down.

We’ll be making the beautiful Doocot by Kate Davies. This jumper has raglan shaping and can be knit cropped, as shown, or lengthened to a full-length jumper. 

The Sweater Support Circle gives you:

• The support and guidance to knit a sweater, in-the-round from the top down.
• You'll be guided on techniques, learn how to choose a size (including choosing ease), learn how to knit a jumper that fits you exactly how you want it to and more.
• The support and motivation of a community of like-minded makers.
• Initial Sweater Support Circle 2-Part Workshops at a discounted rate of just $50 per class is included with your Kit. 
• At Workshop 1 you will learn: The important starting steps - swatching, gauge, taking measurements and choosing a size
• At Workshop 2 you will learn: Checking your gauge swatch (that you knitted during the previous workshop) and then casting on and starting your top-down jumper
• Followed by access to our Sweater Support Circle member meet-ups ($30ea, including pattern support)
• Our friendly knitting expert will be on hand at the fortnightly meet-ups to assist with techniques and the next steps of your jumper - helping you make changes to fit and length if you desire; splitting for sleeves, etc.
• You'll need to purchase the pattern beforehand as a PDF on Ravelry, or purchase it on the day and we can print a copy for you!
