Jethro-In Person Only
Crochet meets knitting in the Jethro and for us it was love at first sight. Come join in our romance with the crochet granny square and knitting and hook/knit up the Jethro. This boxy fit cardigan offers 6 sizes from bust measurement. The smallest size measures 34.5” and the largest measures 78.75”. Basic crochet and knitting skills are required. You must know how to chain, double crochet, slip stitch, AND must know basic knit and purl stitches, I will teach you the rest. (You can take a private lesson if you feel you need to catch up on any of your basics. We are happy to help you.) You will learn to join as you go construction, knit & purl ribbing, setting button holes, and picking up stitches. You will be adding skills to your tool box, as well as adding a fabulous cardigan to your wardrobe. If you are unfamiliar with granny square construction, please take advantage of the Traditional Granny Squares class given on Sundays May 12th & 26th from 5:15 - 7:15 PM which will help prepare you for success with Jethro. If you would prefer some individual time to prepare for this class, we also offer private lessons. Talk to us at the shop and we can help arrange that for you. We are very excited to share this pattern with you. Please reserve your spot right away. See you soon.
