Crochet t(w)oo - Crochet Clinic

Crochet t(w)oo  / Crochet clinic

Making  small blocks out of crochet and joining them together to make a larger piece of fabric has long been a favourite way of working and using odds and ends of yarn. Breaking down a project into small, easy to transport pieces means that you can crochet blocks on a bus, train, plane, automobile, watching TV... etc etc...

This workshop follows on from "Introduction to Crochet". You will learn how to make a so called Granny Square and/or a block or flower motif.

Note : to accommodate people who missed the Crochet for beginners workshop, we can fit in a number of beginners or people who would like to do a refresher.  Let us know in advance if you will be starting from scratch or would like to learn how to do a Granny Square.
