I’m trying out a workroom style class for this big knit, so if you have taken one of my virtual knitting classes before, things will work a bit differently with this sweater so please read carefully!

Because this sweater is a LOT of knitting I wanted to make sure each knitter could work comfortably at their own pace without having to keep up with a rigid structure and aggressive pacing to make sure we covered every aspect of the sweater before the end of the class. With this workroom style you will be able to join the group check in sessions to see other knitter’s work and be part of the group live, and you’ll be able to sign up for one on one sessions with me when you need help or have specific questions. You’ll also have access to a private group forum where you’ll be able to check in with fellow knitters, share your progress, get your questions answered, and be inspired by everyone’s progress.

With your workroom registration you’ll get:

• 3 months of content starting with a kick off group class on Wednesday July 17th and ending with a workroom wrap up party on Wednesday October 16th - both from 6:30-8pm CT. The workroom forum will never close, but will stop being regularly monitored on Monday October 21st.

• 2 additional group check ins - Wednesday August 21st and Wednesday September 18th, both from 6:30-8pm CT.

  • Group check ins will be recorded and shared with the group. These check ins will be available to stream forever!

• 2 30 minute one on one classes with me you can schedule when you need them over our 4 month workroom. I’ll have weekday, weeknight, and weekend day registration options so you can schedule your one on one classes! Additional one on one time can be purchased as well.

• The Paul McCartney Sweater Planning Worksheet I created to make sure you plan and knit your sweater to your specifications.

• My Paul McCartney Sweater colorwork charts.

• Access to a private forum at LauraAllyson.Party where you’ll be able to share pics of your progress and interact with other workroom participants. Members of LauraAllyson.Party will have access to the workroom as long as you have a membership. Non members of LauraAllyson.Party will receive a free membership to The Party from July 10th - October 21st.

• A coupon code for 15% off your Kelbourne Woolens Camper sweater kit - the yarn I used to make my sweater and PERFECT for it! The coupon code and yardage estimates will be emailed to you in your welcome email. Any amount of Camper and all colors are included in the discount!
