Tunisian Crochet
11am to 2pm Saturday, 16 September 2023
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.
