Tunisian Crochet with Kristy

Cost: $60.00

Tunisian crochet is a type of crochet that holds multiple loops on the hook in a style similar to what is done in knitting. It differs from knitting in that it uses a crochet hook, not knitting needles. The result is a fabric that is beautifully textured using a technique that combines the best of knitting and crochet. What you will learn in class: -How to Cast On -Tunisian Simple Stitch -Tunisian Slip Stitch Bind-Off -How to read a simple pattern We will discuss the different types of hooks and other useful tools for those who are just beginning their adventure with fiber arts. This class is appropriate for absolute beginners, but prior crochet experience is definitely helpful. We will make a practice piece in class and start your first official project. You will be making a face scrubby in class and start on a dishcloth as well for you to finish at home. You will go home with a reference sheet that will include detailed descriptions of what we covered in class. Materials needed: None! All materials will be provided for this class. There is a nonrefundable materials fee of $20 that is included in your ticket fee. We do understand things happen and people have to cancel classes, but the materials fee is nonrefundable. This allows the instructor to order the materials in a timely manner for the class. Instructor: Kristy Hendricks Kristy has over 20 years experience in fiber arts. As an instructor, she has a very methodical approach, but after many years of working with all kinds of students (and varying levels) she has learned to make adjustments on-the-fly to fit individual mechanics. She has been noted by past students as being incredibly calm and patient, which has allowed many students to fully understand fiber arts, where other instructors have failed. High praise fuels her passion to further a love of the fiber arts for all who express desire.
