Course Prerequisite:Â

Work in the Round:Â
Abbey will delve into the technique of working in the round, as featured in her insightful blog article: Work in the Round with a Cabled Hook. Discover the versatility of this method and its applications, creating a small but stylish wrist cuff. Abbey frequently incorporates this technique into her garments, making it a valuable skill for any enthusiast. Â
Reading a TC Chart:Â
Unlock the secrets of reading Tunisian crochet charts. Abbey will guide you through deciphering chart symbols and understanding how to follow a pattern graphically. Â
Advanced Techniques:Â
Delve into different increase and decrease methods, each serving distinct purposes. Abbey will not only teach the how but also explain the why behind these techniques. Â
Exploration of Stitches:Â
Learn a variety of stitches, understand their chart symbols, and discover when to use each stitch. Abbey's expertise will help you expand your stitch repertoire, providing a foundation for more intricate and captivating projects. Â
Hands-on Practice:Â
Abbey will provide a basic pattern for practice, incorporating the techniques learned during the workshop.
