Related to crochet and with some similarities to knitting, Tunisian Crochet (sometimes known as afghan or tricot crochet) can be used to create a range of items, from light and lacy shawls to warm thick blankets. It's lots of fun to do and nowhere near as tricky as it looks!
In this class you will improve your crochet skills while getting started on your choice of a simple Tunisian crochet pattern - a small shawl (main image), dishcloth (blue) or fingerless mitts (red).
After the class you'll have essential skills and techniques you need for Tunisian crochet including: Tunisian simple stitch and variations of stitches, how to increase and decrease in Tunisian crochet, how to start and finish your work, plus many more useful tips and tricks.
Skills needed: You must be able to crochet (know the basic stitches, or have completed our Beginner Crochet class)
What to bring:
- Smooth, light coloured (not variegated) 8ply/DK weight yarn, at least one colour, more if you wish
- 6.5mm crochet hook with a straight shaft (ie. Not with a comfort grip).
- More information about materials for each project will be emailed to you a few days before your class.
If you want to make the dishcloth, you will need cotton yarn. If you want to make the mitts, a wool or wool blend is best. For the shawl, a lighter weight yarn is suggested (eg. 4ply / fingering) but you can use DK / 8ply for a warmer item.
