This class is going to start by looking at different body shapes and the most flattering fits for each shape and size. We will then look at how we can tailor our knits to suit our own shape and size. We'll look at bust darts, short row shaping, waist shaping, increasing and decreasing length and other clever tricks we can use. In the afternoon, we will take a basic pattern and then you will alter it to suit you, and finally you'll start swatching. You'll leave taking your own individual pattern and plenty of inspiration!
