The crochet class listed below is suitable for crocheters who have been actively crocheting and would like to expand their technical skills. If you know how to crochet, but it has been a few years since you picked up a hook and yarn, please take the Introduction to Crochet class first.

Challenge Yourself! The Mosaic Crochet Jumper

Oct. 7 (Wed.) 6-8 p.m. 8 weeks, meets 10/7, 10/14, 10/21, 11/4, 11/18, 12/2, 12/9, 12/16

When the gloom of winter comes upon us, cheer yourself up with all the colors used in the Mosaic Jumper ($12.75) designed by Nomad Stitches. You can use up stash or select 9 colors of a Sport weight yarn (single) or 18 colors of a Fingering weight yarn (doubled). This is a good class to experiment with and get creative with color. We are giving you lots of time to meet and work on your sweater as the semester progresses. You will learn the skills for a seamless, top-down yoke sweater with short rows, and mosaic stitches. Choose a cropped or full-length style. This sweater is size inclusive with finished measurements of 33 to 64 inches. It is recommended that you already have crocheted a sweater or crocheted mosaic stitches before but not required. By Rebecca Cook.
