Crochet for Knitters
$50.00
A virtual class with Rosann Fleischauer
Mar 31, 2:00-4:00pm CDT
Crochet is something knitters know about — even those who have never done it before — or just know the basics. As a knitter, you already understand yarn, stitch counts, how to read patterns and work from charts; so let’s apply that existing knowledge to a new medium — crochet.
Class sessions will be recorded and remain accessible online to registered students of the class for 4 weeks following the event.

Description
Come explore the fundamentals of crochet as we work together on a simple project to foster the learning process. We will start by exploring the following: pairing of yarn and hook, gauge, and making the chain stitch, single-, double-, and treble-crochet.
Once you get the basics and create your first crochet swatch, we’ll review how to read stitches, charts, and patterns. We will then begin our first project together: working a decorative crochet edge onto your knitted swatch.
Supply List
• 2 Locking stitch markers
• Crochet hook in US size H
