ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

My favourite way to share my love for crochet is by passing on my skills to others. If you're looking for a relaxing and rewarding crochet course that combines creativity with learning, you're going to love this Stitch School Sampler Blanket Workshop. 

COURSE OVERVIEW A course that is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to learn and practice new and different crochet stitches and techniques, build skills, and make something stunning in the process. This isn't just any crochet blanket, it’s a journey through texture, colour, and stitch variety to create a beautiful Striped Stitch Sampler Afghan Blanket made up from many different crochet stitches.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:  The blanket you will crochet is a collection of some of my favorite go-to crochet stitch patterns.Each row will introduce a new stitch or technique, keeping the project fresh and exciting. From timeless classics like double crochet and shell stitch to more textured options like popcorns and front-post stitches, this blanket offers a rich, layered design that’s always interesting to work on.

• 120 rows of stitch variety

• Mixed stitch combinations

• Striped layout that will showcase your yarn palette, showing off all those pretty colours!

• A cozy afghan blanket perfect for your home or outdoor use

  
  

SKILL LEVEL (EASY/INTERMEDIATE)

Beyond beginners basically - You will need to be comfortable crocheting even if its just one stitch 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. This course starts with the basics and progresses through to 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, this course brings both challenge and joy—one beautiful row at a time.
