Crotchet Garlands w/ Lisa Daehlin

July 7, 14, 21, 28
10am-12pm
Join us for a journey through gardens and how we can find and make them with hook and yarn. In this virtual workshop, we use the tools that can connect us over and through space: our minds, hands, and computer or phone screens. Crochet is the specific technique that we will use to make these imagined and magical garlands of flowers, shapes, textures. As with the natural world, we can find and explore an abundance of ideas. The sky is the limit… and so is the grass… and the trees, and the flowers and yes even the weeds.

Materials:
- Crochet hooks (please have a range of sizes, suggested small (D), medium(H), and large (N)
- Yarn (We can use yarn in lots of colors, textures, thicknesses. Suggested minimum of 20 yards in approximately 6 colors each.)
- Beads (with large enough hole for your yarn to fit through) are an optional add-on.
