It's time to make something for YOU! Timber Pullover by Tanya Johnson

We love this pattern because it is unisex and generously sized (from 39 - 62"). The unique side-to-side construction creates a knit-like fabric. So much so, that customers have argued with me in the store about whether our sample, modeled here by Anjali, was actually knit.

Registration fee includes the pattern. The price does not include materials listed below.

Materials*: 

  • Check the pattern page here to choose the size of sweater you are making and the yardage required.
  • Sport or DK weight yarn in the amount for your sweater size. April used Drops Soft Tweed for our sample. The designer recommends a wool cotton blend, so Sandnes Duo would be a good choice.
  • 4mm crochet hook, depending on your gauge. (See below for gauge homework!)
  • A tapestry needle

*Students receive 10% off in-store purchases on class materials.

Homework:

Please check the gauge before you start! Bring your gauge swatch to the first class.

Gauge swatch pattern is:
Foundation ch 32
Row 1 Hdc in 2nd ch from hook, *sl st in next chain, Hdc in next ch, repeat from * across, turn (31)
Row 2-31 ch 1, *hdcBLO in next st, slstBLO in next st, repeat from * until one st remains, Hdc in last st, turn.
 
This gives the expectation that swatch will measure larger than 4 inches square and to take your measurement from the middle within margins.
