Scrap Sock Yarn Hair Scrunchie – Free Crochet Pattern

January 31, 2020 //  by mezza//  2 Comments

A free scrunchie crochet pattern for you! Quick, fun & easy, these hair band covers are a great way to use up & showcase your precious scraps of hand-dyed yarn. Once you’ve made one, you might not be able to stop!

These were made for two special girls, from left-over yarn I had from making them some mittens each. The yarn is “Little Bird Sock” from Lottie Knits in the colourway “Let’s Get This Party Started”. I love Lottie’s yarns – the colours are beautiful and in this case, very cheerful!

Pattern Format

Written in US crochet terminology & includes photos & stitch chart

Materials & Tools

  • 4ply Yarn, 4g / 15m / 16yds for each hairband.
  • Hook – 2.5mm / C/2.
  • Thick, snag free hairband / hair elastic, approx. 5cm in diameter.
  • Needle for sewing in ends.

New Learn to Crochet Course – Riverhouse Barn – Starting 26th February 2020

January 8, 2020 //  by mezza//  Leave a Comment

My January course sold out very quickly but luckily I was able to get some studio space to run an additional “Learn To Crochet” course at the Riverhouse Barn Arts Centre, in Walton-on-Thames – this time for a weekday night.

This is a 3 week course where you will get to grips with all the basics needed to get you competent and confident in the art of crochet.

I have developed a special project that covers starting off, chaining, the basic stitches and joining motifs together for a finished item.

This course is for you if you are :

  • a complete beginner and you’ve never even picked up a hook.
  • someone that has dabbled in crochet but never really got to grips with it.
  • someone that may have crocheted many years ago but need refreshing on the basic techniques.
  • self taught from the internet but want to make sure you’re not picking up any bad habits.

As well as my expert guidance and hands on practical work, the course includes detailed class notes with photo tutorials AND everything you need, including hook, yarn, needles, stitch markers and a handy project bag.

Course Dates 2020

Week 1 : Wednesday 26th February 7:30 – 9:30pm
Week 2 : Wednesday 4th March 7:30 – 9:30pm
Week 3 : Wednesday 11th March 7:30 – 9:30pm

Cost

The 3 week course is £65 and covers all materials needed.

Early Bird Discount
