Skill Builder Class :: Rift Tee


The Rift Tee by Jacqueline Cieslak is a basic knit sweater that is anything but basic. If this is your first sweater or your 10th, this class is really perfect for everyone who wants to learn about construction to fit your body type. This tee can be transformed from a crop to a full length, boat neck to v neck, and short sleeve to long sleeve. You will make a sweater that is perfect just for you!

This class will be extra special because Jacqueline will be joining in the first lesson via Zoom to talk about the Rift pattern and the special touches she puts in her patterns. Such a treat!

Teacher: Candice English with special guest designer, Jacqueline Cieslak
