KGY Cromwell KAL
Join us for our first fall sweater Knit-Along!
Cromwell is the new favorite sweater. With longer sleeves, a roomy neckline, 3×1 ribbing and a relaxed fit, it gives a modern look to the traditional raglan-sleeve pullover. Knit in one piece from the top down with springy worsted weight Woolstok. It comes sizes XS to XXL, and is a great first-sweater project for advanced beginners or a fun knit for more experienced knitters.
There are two ways to participate:
1. IN A CLASS:
Sit with other learners to work on the sweater. Package includes the pattern, 3 class sessions, a custom project bag and 10% off the yarn* for your Cromwell for $55. Additional help is available during Knit Studio.
Class dates (all classes 6-8pm):
September 11th: Cast On
September 25th: Separate for body
October 16th: Sleeves
2. ON YOUR OWN:
Play along with the group from home! No fee for the class and we'll still give you the 10% off* and pay for your pattern. We'll also have free project bags for the first 10 customers who participate in the Cromwell KAL. Additional help is available either in Knit Studio or during the KAL class at the Knit Studio rate of $10/hr.
UPDATE: Blue Sky Fibers has generously donated a prize for one lucky participant who uses Blue Sky Woolstok for their Cromwell! Details coming soon.
*Discount applies to full-price, in-stock yarn, and cannot be combined with other sales or coupons.

SHOP RESPONSIBILITIES
REGISTRATION
- Students must pay a non-refundable deposit of 50% of the posted class fee at time of registration. The balance is due prior to class, but can be paid the day of the class.
- All class registrations including the deposit must be received 5 days prior to the first class. If a minimum number of students is registered but there are still seats available, registration will continue up to the time of the class.
- If a class has to be cancelled due to low enrollment, you will be notified at least 3 days before the first class. If an individual session has to be cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances (e.g. weather, instructor’s illness, etc.), you will be notified as soon as possible and it will be rescheduled.
- If the minimum number of students does not register at least 5 days prior to the first class and the class has to be cancelled, the deposit will be fully refunded or applied to another class of the student’s choice.
- Class deposits will not be refunded for any reason other than as stated above, but a student can find a substitute for their seat without penalty.
SUPPLIES / MATERIALS
- We ask that any class materials be purchased from Knitty Gritty Yarns and that you do not substitute. Please arrive for class at least 15-30 minutes early to purchase any supplies if you have not already done so.
- Material fees are in addition to the class fee and should be paid prior to the start of the first class.
- Class handouts are for the students who attend the class. Registrants who do not attend the class will not receive handouts. Handout may not be copied as that would be a violation of copyright laws.
STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES
- Only registered students may sit in class. As such, no children or guardians or visiting friends may sit in unless they have fully paid the class tuition.
- All students are presumed to have the prerequisite skills listed on the class sheet. The teacher will only be able to assist students without the prerequisite skills as time allows and may be very limited. Please be sure you are comfortable with the prerequisite skills listed.
- If pre-work or homework is required for class, please make every effort to have it completed prior to class. Class time is scheduled based on the assumption that students will be ready to proceed from the point of the completed homework. If you need additional help, please visit Knitty Gritty Yarns during regular business hours.
- Any equipment or materials borrowed by the student from Knitty Gritty Yarns or the Instructor must be returned immediately upon the conclusion of the class in the same condition as it was received. Any equipment or material that is not returned in a timely manner or that is damaged shall become the property of the student, who will be charged the full retail price for such equipment or material.
- At the conclusion of the class students will be requested to complete a Class/Instructor Evaluation Form. Please give the form some thought and be frank and honest. It is Knitty Gritty Yarns' intention to make every class it offers the best it can be and we need your feedback to do so.
- Please advise Knitty Gritty Yarns staff of any allergies or health issue that we need to accommodate. We will make every effort to make your experience instructive, positive and fun.
SHOP RESPONSIBILITIES
- Knitty Gritty Yarns will provide a reasonable learning environment including a knowledgeable instructor, access to necessary supplies and an appropriate work area.
- Knitty Gritty Yarns will make every effort to contact you if the class or a class session has to be cancelled or rescheduled for any reason. You are encouraged to call us at (315) 472-9276 to confirm the class is being held as scheduled if you have any doubts.
