The Relationship Between Sweater Construction and Design
Sweaters are characterized by the way the sleeves are joined to the body. In this one-hour Chat Ann Budd will outline the basics of six sweater types—Circular Yoke, Raglan, Drop Shoulder, Modified-Drop Shoulder, Set-In Sleeve, and Saddle Shoulder. The construction type influences how the sleeves meet the body of a sweater and, consequently, how that sweater fits the upper body. Each type lends itself to distinct design possibilities, whether knitted from the bottom up or from the top down, and whether knitted in pieces or seamlessly. You'll leave the Chat with a better understanding of how sweater design is closely tied to sweater construction.
Ann will also share the project she's designed for the 2025 The Longest Day fundraiser for Alzheimer's and other dementia research. Learn how you can join Ann in raising funds by knitting a cowl along with her during her annual dawn-to-dusk knit endeavor on Sunday, June 29th. The Fading Memories 2025 pattern will be available on Ravelry in late March and Ann will donate $ 5 for each pattern sold. Together, we can help put an end to this devastating disease!
