Description
Dive into the world of crochet with no previous experience. Learn how to craft stunning storage baskets from scratch, even if you’ve never picked up a crochet hook before! In this hands-on class, you’ll have the time and materials to create two sturdy crochet baskets in sizes that perfectly fit your needs. Using a chunky 6mm hook and 5mm 100% recycled cotton braid, you’ll craft: Medium Basket: Approximately H10cm x W12cm (wooden basket base) Mini Basket: Approximately H9cm x W10cm (wooden basket base) These baskets aren’t just functional; they’re also incredibly versatile. Use them to store toiletries, jewellery, craft supplies, stationary, sweets, or proudly display keepsakes and found objects. Plus, they add a personal touch to any space, whether it’s your office, bathroom, crafts studio, or as a thoughtful gift for a friend. And the best part? You don’t need any prior experience to join this creative and sociable class. All materials, including premium cord, a 6mm hook, solid basket base, and a feature leather ‘handmade’ tag, will be provided. Plus, you’ll receive the pattern so you can continue crafting at home! Once you’ve discovered how addictive crochet is, you’ll be hooked (excuse the pun!) and ready to learn more skills and techniques in one of our regular Beginner’s Crochet classes.
