About the Instructor: Susan Dewey is a curious knitter, always wanting to understand the "why" of anything she does. She loves sharing what she has learned with anyone willing to listen, and winkling out answers to any questions that might arise. Her Grammy taught her to knit early on. Twenty years later, Susan discovered Elizabeth Zimmermann and Barbara Walker, and began adding texture and color work to a basic top-down raglan sweater. That was when she moved from someone who knits to a Knitter.
