Bring warmth and creativity into the heart of winter with this special three-part crochet workshop (dates below) led by local crochet enthusiast Jill. Over the course of three weeks, you’ll create your very own bolster-style cushion, stitched in your chosen wool colour and finished with an eye-catching cross-over detail.
This is the perfect opportunity to deepen your crochet skills, share time with fellow makers, and take home a beautiful handmade piece for your home. Some crochet knowledge is needed, and there may be a little homework between sessions to keep your project on track.
✨ What to expect:
- Week 1 (1st October) – Let’s Begin: Explore the pattern, select your wool, and start those first stitches.
- Week 2 (8th October) – Trickier Stitches: Master the techniques needed for the detailed middle section of your cushion.
- Week 3 (15th October) – Moving On: Learn how to bring everything together, finish your cushion, and give it that professional touch.
Whether you’re polishing up your skills or challenging yourself with a new project, this workshop offers plenty of support, encouragement, and a cosy community atmosphere.
🧶 Leave with: a handmade bolster cushion, new techniques under your belt, and the joy of having crafted something unique to you.
