TUNISIAN CROCHET WORKSHOPS
There has recently been a resurgence in the popularity of Tunisian Crochet, otherwise known as Afghan Crochet or Tricot. It is part knit, part crochet, and is endlessly versatile from close textured even stitches to a multitude of lacy variations. In my workshop you will learn 3 basic stitches and make a small item. No previous knowledge of crochet is necessary . A hook and yarn, and embellisments are included.
Please bring a packed lunch with you.
Teas, coffee and biscuits will be provided.
The workshops costs £60.00 and a non-returnable deposit of £30 is needed to confirm your place. Please message me for details.
