Virtual Entrelac Tunisian Crochet

Session One
We will begin by casting on ready for your cushion cover in your chosen yarn. We will then work through the first level of your cushion.

Session Two
We will learn how to create the second and third level of your cushion.

Session Three
Looking at completing level 3 and then carrying on to make your cushion.

Session Four
In our fourth and final session, we will learn all about finishing off Entrelac Tunisian Crochet cushion with the final level. Please note depending on the size of project chosen it is unlikely that you will finish the entrelac project in the course sessions unless you do extra work between sessions.

This course is for absolutely anyone aged 8 years and up who can already confidently crochet tunisian simple stitch including casting on and casting off. You will be shown how to follow the pattern, increase and decrease stitches and change colours during the course.

The session is run online so you will need a device (phone, tablet, laptop etc), an ability to connect to the internet and to download zoom - free video conferencing software. We would recommend a larger screen where possible to enable you to get a good view of your subject. We recommend turning your own audio and video feed on are optional in this session.

You will need at least two colours of chunky yarn and a size 8mm tunisian crochet hook (or tension adjusted size if required). If you wish to purchase yarn from us please get in touch as we have lots of Stylecraft Special Chunky available at £2.30 a ball or £2 a ball when buying 3 or more at the same time. You will also need a cushion inner - we recommend purchasing this after the course as your tension may mean that the size needed varies. Plus you may decide to make a rectangular cushion rather than a square one.

Handouts for the sessions will be emailed prior to course start date enabling you to print them off ready for session one. If you don't have a printer please get in touch as we can print them and post to you for a small additional charge.

All of the skills you have learned, full electronic instructions that you can print at home, and your cushion cover. You should have completed your first tunisian project, a sample piece or two and made a good start on your entrelac project that you will take home at the end of the course to complete at your own pace.
