Registration Deadline: Monday, April 10, 5:00 pm
Instructor: Sherry Smith
Day/Time: Wednesday Mornings 10:30am to 12:30pm
Dates: Four Sessions: April 13, April 27, May 11 and May 25
Skills Level: Intermediate
Pattern: Cloudesley by Isabell Kraemer (pattern may be purchased in advance on Ravelry or at the shop for an additional $6.79)
Cloudesley is worked seamlessly from the top down using the contiguous set-in sleeve method (developed by Susie Myers) to shape the shoulders and sleeve caps. First increases are worked on both RS and WS rows to final shoulder width, while setting up the slip stitch pattern band for the back, then the sleeve caps are worked simultaneously with the V-Neck shaping to sleeve separation. Then the body is worked top down in rounds to the bottom, where a slip stitch pattern band is added to the front. Sleeves are worked top down in rounds. Neck finishing is worked last.
