Introduction to Cro-Tatting, Tunisian, and Filet Crochet
Intermediate Crochet Methods
Description
This is a course for intermediate and advanced crochet students to learn how to make special crochet fabrics. More than just learning new variation of basic stitches, this course introduces students to Tunisian crochet, cro-tatting, filet crochet, and filet crochet design. Best of all, students learn about these methods by completing three projects: A filet crochet heart sampler, a cro-tatted bookmark or trivet, and a Tunisian crochet bag or washcloth. The variations are left up to individual students, depending on their levels of experience. There's no pressure and no time limit! Each project is explained from start to finish in easy-to-follow videos. The sample projects and demonstration videos are short and sweet, making it easy for students to gain confidence while learning new methods and finishing new work!
Most importantly, the instructor loves answering questions! Be sure to use the Q&A forum to ask or answer questions, share work, or even brag a little. Show us your WIPs and HOTHs!
