If you bring he fabric\, you can use your lunch hour to find the perfect yarn in the market place. Various design concepts and combination techniques will be discussed in the class. \nThink Proportional…for Garment Design \nSaturday\, February 24th\, 2018 at 9:00 am – 12:00 pm Saturday 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm \nThis class focuses on a design philosophy which will teach you to look at garments and translate them to your own proportions. Learn to analyze and translate what you see in knitting patterns\, fashion magazines\, and online to your personal shape and proportions. Students will measure each other and work with a pattern (provided) to understand logical changes. Then knitters\, sewers\, weavers and multi-crafters can adapt the process and garments that work with their proportions. \n  \nCross-pollinating Techniques\nSunday\, February 25th\, 2018 1:30 pm – 4:30 pm \nExpand your knitting repertoire by borrowing from the sewing world.
