ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

If you're looking for a rewarding crochet course that combines creativity with hands on learning, you're going to love this Stitch School Cocoon Cardigan Course. You will literally get to wrap yourself in cosy and warm handmade happiness this Spring! 

My favourite way to share my love for crochet is by passing on my skills to others - you keep asking so now I have a created a wearables course just for you!

There are literally hundreds of beautiful crochet designs available for you to make, but for a confident beginner / intermediate crocheter they can still be scary!

This is because most crochet patterns are written using abbreviations of crochet terms, which save space and make patterns easier to read and some YouTube videos just tie your brain in knots... when you don’t know the terms or the abbreviations or the symbols or even how to read a crochet chart it’s just frustrating jibberish.

So... we will master some of these in this course, with this pattern, until they become familiar. Real hands on teaching, no confusion, no overwhelm. Practicing new and different crochet stitches and techniques, building on your skills, and making something stunning in the process.

COURSE OVERVIEW

Over 4x fabulous, 2.5hr workshops on consecutive weeks (10hrs in total) you will be guided through the crochet pattern to make this beautiful Chunky Cocoon Cardigan. Creatively constructed from a simple rectangle, this flattering wearable is made with chunky yarn and comes together pretty easily with no shaping required or any increases or decreases.

SKILL LEVEL (EASY/INTERMEDIATE)

Beyond beginners basically - You will need to be comfortable crocheting even if its just a few stitches ie. single or double crochet stitch. 

This course is intended for those who have learnt the basics of crochet and are now looking to increase their crochet confidence starting with the basics and progressing onto intermediate stitches and combinations.

It is a great way to get used to working from both a written pattern and chart.

Whether you're a confident beginner or a seasoned crocheter, once you have the pattern repeat nailed, you’ll work relatively quickly through this pattern and really enjoy the process of seeing your new wearable take shape right before your eyes!
