Instructor: Carol Ventura
Materials Fee: $1 - Please pay instructor on site
Fee Includes: Wool, beads, beading needle, stitch marker, and handouts (The wool and beads will probably be donated by the suppliers.)
Skill Level: Beginner
Supplies to bring: Size J crochet hook and scissors.
Description: Felting and bead tapestry crochet were made for each other! A large hook and loose single crochet stitches are used to make the bag, and then it is felted in a washing machine. The finished felted tapestry crochet fabric is thick and patterned on both sides. Participants will crochet a bag and also learn how to design a motif on tapestry crochet graph paper. Students only need to know the single crochet stitch. Felting instructions are included, but due to time constraints, the bag will have to be felted in a washing machine at home.
Homework: Students may bring a motif (optional) to incorporate into their bag.
