  • Preparation

Requirements

  • The basic crochet stitches such as slip knot, chain stitch, double crochet etc.
  • You will need yarn and a crochet hook. I suggest for the easier handling to choose yarn you can work with easily, not too thin, not too thick.
  • You will also need scissors and a darner needle
  • Styrofoam wreath

Description

First we start with these uncommon patterns:

  1. Puff Flower

  2. Hibiscus Flower

  3. Irish Lace Rose

  4. Corkscrew

  5. Irish Lace Button - we use this as a pistil

  6. Irish Lace Leaf

I carefully choose these patterns, because I wanted them to be not so obvious. So when you look at the result, not for sure you can make it just like that. It also took me a while to find out, how they are made, therefore I find them very exciting.

The Irish Lace Crochet is especially close to my heart. This is a trend in crochet, which I find really special and it is pretty different, although using the very same stitches.

In the end of each item, I will explain the pattern, also you can download and print them too.

In the second part of the course, we will make the Floral Wreath.

I will use a different yarn for the wreath compared I am teaching the items with, hence this would have been too thin to demonstrate with.

I use the British terms, but I attach a dictionary, and I will also write up on the screen the American crochet terms when they are needed.

Choose your favorite colors, get the right yarn, can be solid colors, or gradient, buy a wreath base, get some ordinary pins, and let's start it!

You will enjoy every second of it, (I do ;)) and in the end you will have a fabulous floral wreath, which never withers.

Who this course is for:

  • This course is designed for those, who are familiar with the basic crochet stitches and techniques.
  • Those, who never held crochet hooks in their hand, this course might be overwhelming, therefore not recommended.
  • Once you are familiar with the basic stitches, it is enough, from here I explain everything in detail.
