Getting Started with the Whirly Wonderful Crochet Wrap

with Sharon Oldfield of Cotton Pod

Saturday: 16:30 – 17:30

This workshop is designed to show you the basics of how to work a triangular shawl. Suitable for beginners – although you will need to know how to do a UK htr. During the workshop you will watch a demonstration of the stitch used, how to work the rows and turn your work. You will then get started on your own shawl and we will ensure that you have worked a good few rows and are confident enough to complete the shawl at your leisure when you get home.

A little bit about the Whirly Wonderful Wrap

This beautiful light weight 60%cotton/40% acrylic mix wrap is perfect for all seasons to add a pop of colour to your outfit. It takes one Scheepjes Whirl to make this wrap and it was designed to be a calming, mindful project that you will find easy to pick up and put down throughout the day! The simple yet effective stitch pattern shows off the gradient in the Scheepjes Whirl perfectly and creates a fabric with a lovely soft drape. You will soon learn the pattern and relax into a steady rhythm. 

Participants will receive all necessary materials including yarn, hook, pattern & stitch marker.
