Working with Knits: September 17th - October 8th, 2025

This is a 4-week sewing course that will be held in our sewing area at Community on Wednesday evenings with a maximum class size of 6 students. In this class, students will learn how to sew a knit garment on a regular sewing machine. Students will learn how to choose the right knit fabric for a pencil skirt and a simple t-shirt. While constructing the garments, students will gain experience in working with digital pdf patterns, choosing their desired size, cutting knits, and assembling and finishing a garment using stretch stitches available on home sewing machines. While this is a beginners to intermediate level class, students are required to have a basic understanding of how to use their sewing machine and be able to sew a straight line. If you don't yet know how to use your machine, please sign up for our Beginners Sewing Course. By the end of this course, you will have made a slim, high waist pencil skirt with a hidden elastic waistband designed for knit fabrics from Sew Hous
