About
Learn how to make three-dimensional objects using crochet and a little wire, tape, and glue. The skills you'll learn and practice include:
- How to stiffen crochet objects by incorporating craft wire into the project as you're stitching
- Advanced pattern and diagram reading
- How crochet stitches of varying length can be combined to shape an object
At the first session, you'll concentrate on making the head, petals, sepal, and leaves of the rose, completing the pieces at home if needed. During the second session, you'll assemble the the rose into a completed flower.
Skill level: Intermediate. Although this class will not use anything but basic crochet stitches, you'll be doing small, fine stitching, which is more difficult than working with larger hooks. Good vision and lighting are also helpful.
