Crochet a Christmas Blanket - 6 part course - evening

  • Lark Design Make Studio, Cardiff (map)

This September we will be hosting a fortnightly crochet club with the aim of creating a fab Nordic style blanket ready for Christmas!

The sessions will focus on the Corner 2 Corner (C2C) stitch which enables you to build up patterns and ultimately create squares that can be joined together to create the 9 square blanket, the individual squares also make gorgeous cushion covers so you don't have to feel that you have to make all 9 if you don't have time or luckily Christmas comes around every year ;-)

It is suitable for all crocheters, you would need be able to do at least one stitch confidently so if you are a total beginner we would recommend you book our beginners crochet workshops at least a few weeks before the first session and practice lots before we start.. The great thing about the 9 individual squares is that it is easy to crochet on the go as each square is not too big, there are loads of patterns available so your blanket will be totally unique, we will start with easy patterns and build up to harder patterns.

The course is £95 for 6 taught sessions on fortnightly Thursdays excluding half term when we will host a ‘get together’ session for those who are available for just £5 extra (21/9, 5/10, 19/10 (then half term break) 16/11, 30/11, 14/12)

Please note the cost does not include the wool/yarn, you will be shown examples of suitable wool from Shaws/HobbyCraft/Online etc and we will also offer you discount on ordering from Stylecraft yarns at a discount price with us, you will have 2 weeks after the first session to purchase your chosen yarn and start square 1, you will be practicing on our wool during session 1. (The material will cost from £30 upwards for the whole blanket)

The course does include all the patterns, a handy tote, a step by step guide, reminder video tutorials, a hook, yarn bobbins and access to a Facebook support group. Also hot drinks and sweet snacks during the sessions.
