Welcome 4-H fiber artists! Are you interested in learning about all things crochet? If you have experience crocheting or if you have never crocheted before, there is something for you.
Join us for a 4-H Crochet Project Meeting! At this meeting we will Explore handy crochet tools beyond hooks and work on a guided project, either beginner basics or intermediate C2C crochet.
Register Here
Topic: Crochet charts & patterns – Learn how to decode written crochet patterns as well as the symbols used in crochet charts.
You are…
- Beginner if… you have never crocheted before or you are still getting the hang of holding the crochet hook, chaining, or doing simple stitches in a row.
- Intermediate if…you are confident holding a crochet hook, doing simple stitches in rows, and are ready to work on simple to more complex patterns and projects.
Please bring…
- Crochet Hook (size G, H, or I) – Some crochet hooks are available to borrow and/or purchase for $3
- (Optional) Yarn – Yarn supplies will be provided for beginners. Some yarn will be available for intermediate projects.
- (Optional) Your own completed crochet project – If you would like to show off something you have made, be prepared to share 1-2 minutes about your project and answer a few questions.
Volunteers needed… if you are a confident crocheter, Grade 6+ (or an approved adult), and wish to help answer questions, give a presentation, teach beginners, or lead an intermediate project, sign up to be a volunteer!
Topic: Crochet Tools – More than just hooks! Learn about stitch markers, yarn winders, blocking boards and more.
Projects:
Intermediate – Learn corner-to-corner (C2C) crochet using only double crochets and chains. We’ll review how to read crochet pattern charts. Bring your own yarn or use some of ours (worsted weight, acrylic, solid yarn works best).
Beginner – Guided step-by-step instruction on crochet basics.
Volunteers, please arrive 15-30 minutes early.
