Have you always wanted to knit your very first sweater, but are afraid of what could go wrong? First there’s gauge, then yarn choice, then picking the right size, then figuring out where to measure from, and then there are those pesky instructions that say “AND AT THE SAME TIME…” and…OH BOY! Whew. Knitting your first sweater can be a challenge!
Come demystify the art of sweater knitting with us this fall! We have chosen “Flax” – a seamless, top-down, knit in one piece in the round pattern to make knitting your first pullover an uncomplicated, enjoyable and successful experience. Of course, we will help you throughout the process, including casting on, raglan increases, how to separate the sleeves from the body, casting on and off mid-row, measuring gauge, and figuring out all the “knitting math” you’ll ever need to know to successfully complete any other pattern you wish!
The Flax Pullover pattern ranges in size from newborn all the way up to adult 4XL! This means that people of all shapes and sizes can be accommodated, and this versatile unisex design compliments everyone. Choose the size you wish to knit, and come knit your very first sweater (or your second, or third, or fourth, or…!) with Jen at London Yarns! Please keep in mind that the larger the size you knit, the more homework will be required between classes.
Rated: All Knitters
Pre-Requisite: comfortable with knit and purl stitches, comfortable knitting in the round.

INTERCHANGEABLE NEEDLE KITS
SALE DAY
SSK Members Save 20% off
Non-Members Save 15% off
COME TAKE A TEST DRIVE FOR YOURSELF!
We will have a good representation of each brand / style of needles available for you to personally ‘test drive’ during our Sale Day. Try for yourself and see the difference a needle can make; the material it is made from, the length of the needle tip, the sharpness or bluntness of the tip, and the shape of the needle all can make a big difference in how much you enjoy working with them & how much they can assist you with ease of knitting. Each has their own unique advantages. We will be there to answer any questions you may have.
You’ve no doubt heard about “Interchangeable (IC) Needle Kits”. Perhaps you even have a set of your own. Have you noticed how they are changing the way we knit & how we now look at “needles”.
There are many, many advantages to these kits – among some of them are: ease of knitting, a full range of needle sizes and cord lengths that are compact and portable for travelling, the variety of needle types and materials available enable us to match our needles to our projects and choice of yarns and to top it all off, they are much more economical than buying “traditional” needles, giving you a vast variety of needle sizes, lengths, holders, etc.
We carry a wonderful assortment of quality brands to fit your individual knitting needs, giving you a wide selection of Interchangeable (IC) Needle Kit styles for you to choose from. Here are the brands that we carry.

If you have ever wanted to try another style of needle or a needle made of a different material, now’s the time! It really can make an immense difference in how much you enjoy your knitting. Also, there are appropriate times to match certain needles with certain yarns and using the right needle for your stitch pattern/technique/yarn can make all the difference in the world. Why not give a new style a try? Take advantage of Wednesday's discount and 'broaden your needle horizons'.
If you already own a set of Interchangeable Needles – that’s OK. This Sale Day is an ideal opportunity to expand your needle selection and purchase a different set at a discounted price, to compliment your current needles. IT IS OK TO HAVE MORE THAN ONE SET!! MOST of us here at the shop , myself included, own multiple sets and change up which needles we use, depending on our project, to get the most enjoyment from our knitting.
