With Ellen Lewis

Join ROWAN CONNECT Tutor, Ellen Lewis for a comprehensive 4-week exploration of Finishing Skills. You'll master professional finishing techniques for hand knits. Starting with essential knitting practices for seamless assembly, you'll delve into the art of blocking, understanding its methods and best practices for sweaters. The intensive third session focuses on various seaming techniques tailored to different stitch patterns. Lastly, learn about adding borders, button bands, and intricate details like buttonholes with precision. With these skills, achieving a polished finish becomes straightforward. 

Small classes with plenty of attention from your tutor will ensure that you make lots of progress each week. Classes are recorded so you can catch up on anything you missed and rewatch sections as many times as you like.

As well as weekly classes, your tutor will host weekly Q&A sessions to give you the opportunity to check in.

A small amount of essential homework will be given each week - and of course, you can practice your newfound skills in between classes as much as you like.
