I’m running this Crochet Winter Wreath Course in the daytime at the Riverhouse Barn and in the evening at St. Erconwald’s – both in Walton-on-Thames. Please make sure you book the correct session.
Skill Level
For this course, students must be competent with basic crochet techniques, particularly double crochet (UK treble), single crochet (UK dc), counting stitches & pattern reading. All other stitches and techniques are taught in class. This is a great course for improvers as it will cover lots of different techniques.
Please note: this is NOT a learn to crochet course.
Crochet Winter Wreath Course Overview
- Making “natural” elements such as fir cones, mistletoe, mushrooms and more.
- How to make a wreath from scratch.
- How to arrange and attach your elements.
Dates
This is a 3 week course, running on either Monday afternoons or Monday evenings:
- 10th, 17th & 24th November 12:30-2:30pm – Riverhouse Barn.
- 10th, 17th & 24th November 7:30-9:30pm – St. Erconwalds Church hall.
Cost
The course is £60 for 3 weeks. Materials are NOT included but I will have a kit available to purchase (price and contents TBC).
Class Format
All my classes come with detailed class notes and pattern. I provide samples and practical demonstrations of all techniques, helping and encouraging students with hands on assistance so that they can feel confident with their new found skills.
IMPORTANT: This is a new course and there is currently NO video content. I will have some very limited capacity during the 3 week course to create a couple of videos for specific techniques that students are struggling with. Therefore, please treat this course as an in-person only course.
Materials & Tools
Yarn: We’ll be using Catona Cotton because it comes in a great range of colours and is relatively good value. You’ll need natural foliage colours such as greens, brown for fircones, red and white for berries. I will provide more information closer to the time.
Hooks: 2.5mm – 3mm
Other: Scissors, wool needle, stitch markers etc.
Wreath : A natural twig wreath is my preference – it looks great and saves time. However, I will also show you how to crochet your own wreath.
Stuffing : Natural fibres are preferable (kapok), altenatively, repurposed stuffing from old cushions/pillows etc is a great choice. Please avoid buying polyester filling – it’s bad for the environment and bad for us.
Course Sign Up & Payment
| Polite request: Many of my students work day jobs and are therefore unable to attend the daytime sessions. If you are free during the day, please consider booking the daytime, rather than the evening, so that more people have a chance to take part – thank you ♡ |
