Do you remember those latch hook rug kits you may have created as a child? It was a craft that was commonly used to make rugs, cushions and other soft furnishings (years ago), it's similar to weaving but its not weaving and its taking over people's Pinterest boards! We've added our contemporary spin to it and teaching you how to create a wall hanging with these craft skills!
During this online session you'll learn all about the tools and materials needed as well as how to latch hook and how different yarns can create different effects and movement to your one of a kind wall hanging. The possibilities are endless.
This relaxing workshop is perfect for those who just fancy trying latch hook and creating something colourful for their home, as well as those who may want to experiment with different textures, colours and patterns. During the session we'll discuss how to transfer a design (we will give you a design if you prefer so no need to prepare anything) onto the canvas as well as how to achieve different textures just using yarn. The workshop will end with a demonstration on how to attach a wooden rod to your wall hanging and how to protect the edges from fraying. A full recording will be sent everyone a few hours after the workshop.

You may recognise this type of embroidery from your Grandma's home in the 60s, but now it is back! Well, actually it never really left. Bargello is a truly unique form of embroidery as there are both specific stitches and patterns required to make Bargello, Bargello.
During the class you will be introduced to the typical 'Vertical' stitch used throughout all Bargello, and then you'll get your head around the geometric patterns which are also characteristic of Bargello. You'll be stitching in no time, either one of our patterns or your own design, as our tutor is on hand to teach you how to use this unique form of embroidery to design your own unique pattern. Bargello can be used on normal fabric-like needlepoint fabric but we're using plastic canvas so that you can turn your Bargello design into a coaster! Or you can sew them up to create a pencil holder, plant pot, tissue box cover even.

You will receive the pattern for both the mini version of the socks and the adult size.
Once you’ve got the hang of the technique, it’s a piece of cake and we suspect you’ll find yourself hooked. Thick socks, ankle socks, footie socks, slipper socks, sock puppets… we could go on.
Fun Fact about socks: One of the earliest known examples of knitting (formed on two sticks by pulling loops through loops) were a pair of cotton socks found in Egypt from the first millennium A.D.

If you want a gift that you know will stand the test of time, go for a heart-warming blanket. As soon as the recipient carries out the ‘face test’ (yes, the scientific act of grabbing the blanket and rubbing it across their face) they’ll be attached and cherish it for years, even if it get’s dog-eared along the way.
This blanket is worked in a diagonal crochet stitch starting at one corner and finishing at the other (hence its name "corner to corner crochet"). This technique of crochet is also called C2C crochet.
This C2C method is becoming really popular for crocheting as you can crochet cute images such as these and this one here. This also makes a lovely baby blanket and crochet up very quickly.
We are also going to teach you the technique of C2C Join-As-You-Go which is honestly pure magic.
