About this class: Learn the basics of resin and create an amazing set of crochet hooks for your to keep forever and ever and ever! Our tutor is a resin expert who sells her own line of resin jewellery. The session will start with an intro into the different types of resins that are on the market and she will talk you through the properties of the resin that you will be using in this resin crochet hook workshop. You will then move onto how to correctly mix the resin add all those personal embellishments that make your hooks totally original. Then the exciting bit starts and you begin pouring your resin into the moulds. Once the moulds are filled you will be talked through how to finish them off at home.
