Intro to Sweaters:
Flax Pullover

In this class you will learn the basics of sweater knitting and construction. You will make a sweater that is worked seamlessly in the round from the top down. You cast on at the neckline and the yoke is shaped by raglan increases to the underarm. Sleeve sts are placed on hold on waste yarn, the body is completed, then sleeves are worked last.
