Sweater class in September

Yes, It will get cold again.  Already, some morning you can feel a bit chill.  Are you ready?  Do you have your sweaters planned for the Fall?  We have a class starting September 8 where you can knit your first sweater or make another great sweater with expert assistance.  I will be teaching this class and sharing all my designer tips and pointers.  I've been digging through raverly for patterns to share with my students.  Here are a few that I recommend for class.  You can sign up here.

Here are the choices: 










Over four weeks, we will learn about gauge, fit, customizing, seaming, pattern reading, fixing mistakes and so much more!

See you in class!  If you have any questions, just email me at marie@marieconnolly.com.  And yes, you can use your groupon for this class.  If you have a 201 groupon that you'd like to use before it expires in September.  Email me and I'll let you use it for this class.  Same price so great deal!

A new class: Men's Sweater Class

Not just for the boys... but this class features men's designs (designed by men too!). 

I've chosen three different patterns.  One Easy for first time sweater knitters, one intermediate and one challenging.  This class is designed for anyone who knows how to knit and purl.  The rest is what we go over in class!  We meet Tuesdays in March (1, 8, 15 and 22) from from 6:30 to 8:00 to learn new techniques, to encourage, to motivate, to inspire and of course to make a new sweater

Here are some nice sweaters for men (and that I'd probably borrow from Alan's Closet too). They are timeless additions to one's wardrobe. If you are interested in taking the class and maybe these sweaters don't appeal in the same way to you. Let me know and perhaps we can find a sweater that you are anxious to make that we can make together in class! email me


Fee is $70 (plus materials) You get a class discount of 10% off all materials for the class.
