How often have you worked some fancy stitch pattern but became stumped when it came time to shape the neckline? What do you do if you want a classic set-in sleeve instead of the dreaded drop shoulder? How can you create a refined fit and nip in for the waist/ full for the bust?
This class will clue you in on how to work within the stitch structure of a fancy pattern and still add the necessary garment shaping. Find out trade secrets from my ready-to-wear experience.
Proficiency Level: Advanced, should have basic ability to draft one’s own pattern (have designed own garments), not be afraid of stitch-charts
This class will be held from 1 to 4 p.m. on January 8th. Cost is $40 for Guild members and $50 for guests. Register at the December and January meetings.
Note: This is a particularly useful workshop for those submitting designs to the NYCCG pattern book.
