Champagne Cardigan Workshop, January 11th thru March 1st, 2026

Champagne Cardigan       By PetiteKnit

The Champagne Cardigan is worked from the top down with raglan increases on the yoke and a deep V-neck. The neckline of the cardigan is shaped with short rows by raising the back of the neck. The button plackets are worked in double knitting with buttonholes along the right side.  It has an oversized fit and is designed to have approximately 11 inches of positive ease.

Instructor for this course is Sherry Smith. She will take you through the construction details and help you create the perfect fitting garment!! You will learn the impeccable finishing techniques used in the pattern.

There will be a small amount of homework for this workshop. Make sure we have a good email for you when you sign up. And as always, we are here to help you pick yarns!
