Festival Season is fast approaching – be the diva of the disco with these fun crochet sleeves!
This is a 6-week series where you’ll learn to crochet your very own stylish sleeves! + some bonus stuff for extra fast crafters!
This series is suitable for absolute beginners and those with a little basic crochet experience.
Week One – Swatching – We’ll cover crochet basics, tools, materials, and yarn. You’ll make a small swatch to gauge fit, learn the mesh stitch, and pattern design for your project.
Week Two – The Front – We’ll start with the front panel of your garment using the mesh stitch. Learn to add stripes or change colours and guidance on your neck opening.
Week Three – The Back and Neck – We’ll continue crocheting the back panel to match the front. Master shaping techniques, including the neck hole.
Week Four – The Sleeves – You’ll start on crocheting the first sleeve in the round, providing help on maintaining stitch count and pattern consistency.
Week Five – Second Sleeve – You’ll finish the first sleeve, checking length and fit. Then, dive into the second sleeve.
Week Six – Finishing – In our final session, you’ll make any adjustments needed to the garment size and shape. Learn best practice techniques for sewing in the tails and how to block your garment for polished finish!
Bonus!
If you’re super speedy, we’ll also teach you how to make a crochet scrunchie to match your new pair of sleeves! Or get you started on a matching skirt!
MT will provide – Paper and pencils, hooks and yarns for designing your colour combos and swatches for your first session.
You will need to bring – An appropriate size crochet hook & yarn to complete your garment. We will discuss the buying yarn in the first session!
It’s highly likely that you will complete the garment during the 6 weekly sessions because it very addictive and fun!
