GEMS Workshop

Date:  Saturday April 19th 1pm - 3pm

GEMS: Gauge, Ease, Measurements, Sizing

We all want GEMS.  But these are the GEMS that you need!

Join us for this presentation of the GEMS that you need when knitting or crocheting.  We look at Gauge and why it really does matter; the difference that Ease will make in your design; how to correctly take body measurements; and how for find the correct size.  

This is an interactive presentation where you will practice changing yarns in a pattern, put your learning to the test in determining gauge, determine the amount of ease you want in a design, practice taking body measurements, and finally, correctly choose the right size for various patterns.  You will be provided with various charts & guides for future reference.  

Materials needed:  
There is no homework for this workshop. Please bring any of the tools that you currently use for determining gauge, ease, measurements, and sizing. Do you need help determining the GEMS of a particular project?  Bring it with you and we can help.
