Class - Tunisian Crochet - Beginner's Workshop

Are you a confident traditional crocheter, but would like to try something a little different, but similar?!

Tunisian (or Afghan) crochet builds on basic crochet knowledge, and combines with a few knitting techniques, to create unique woven fabrics, generally thicker than traditional crochet.  It is great for home decor items like cushions, mats and warm blankets. Larger hooks can also be used to create drapey fabrics for scarfs and shawls.

This Workshop will introduce the basics of Tunisian Crochet through creating a sampler of simple stitches.

You will learn:

• Foundation row
  
• Tunisian Simple Stitch
  
• Tunisian Purl Stitch
  
• Tunisian Knit Stitch
  
• Tunisian Extended Stitch
  
• If you are feeling confident, the Honeycomb Stitch
  
• How to change colour at left & right edges.
  

The cost of this workshop includes 3 hrs of tuition only.

Materials required for workshop:

• 2 x 8Ply/DK balls of yarn - 2 different colours 
• A Tunisian crochet hook - 5.0, 5.5 or 6.0mm
