Whip Your Knits Into Shape

A Shaping Workshop with Joan McGowan-Michael

Joan McGowan-Michael of White Lies Designs and author of Knitting Lingerie Style will be here on Nov. 7th & 8th for a very special workshop. This is an event you can’t afford to miss.

What’s it about?

In her own words:
“Adding designer shaping touches to your knitted garments is easy once you know a few simple rules and how to apply them. Flatter your figure by shaping any garment as you knit it. Darts, ease, and short row shaping are all important elements for a custom fit. Learn which ones to use to play up your specific body type to it’s best advantage.”

Be sure to check her website White Lies Designs for more information on this fabulous designer.
