Improvers Crochet with Aroona Murphy

The Duncairn · Workshops & classes
Begins Wednesday 4th November 6pm – 8pm 6 weeks Cost £60 Materials included Register Improvers Crochet is the ideal choice if you’d like to progress with your crochet skills and stitch vocabulary and to work towards a project with guidance in the class. It’s advised that if you’ve already completed the Absolute Beginners classes at The Duncairn - or if you have some existing crochet skills that you’d like to expand upon - this would be the next step for you. You will get the chance to explore some versatile stitches like The Ripple Stitch, Block Stitch and working in a circle; as well as choosing a small project to work on with support during the classes. The pattern will be supplied, and you can choose to work on a scarf/cowl or cotton shopping bag – or continue making a larger project like a blanket or runner with the stitches learned in the beginning of the classes. The classes are relaxed and informal and we progress at the individual’s pace. Stitch and pattern instructions, hooks and some yarn will be supplied - and you are of course welcome to bring your own as well. Posted in Classes & Workshops Tagged In-Centre Class
