I have been crocheting for 6 years now! My expertise is in making amigurumi (the Japanese art of making small toys), but I have also crocheted blankets, hats and scarves as well.
There is no homework, but it is highly recommended that students practice each of the stitches in between classes. This way, it will make crocheting the washcloth much easier and less frustrating.
REQUIRED: -Yarn: It's best to buy acrylic yarn for this course. Any color is fine! -Crochet hook: the size of the crochet hook does not matter for this lesson, but beginners may have an easier time crocheting with a bigger hook -Scissors -Needle: if using regular needles makes you uncomfortable, you can purchase plastic needles from a hobby store
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
1 hour 50 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
I will provide videos showing how to do each of the stitches used in making this project. In addition, after the second lesson, I will provide the washcloth pattern.
