I am very excited to be preparing for an upcoming workshop that I will be teaching the members of the Kuwait Textile Arts Association!
It will span over 2 sessions of 2 hours each. I have a lot of activities planned, so I hope we can fit it all in!
Freeform Crochet is what first got me interested in learning how to crochet, and the International Freeform Guild got me started!
The idea of crocheting without a pattern is so thrilling to me. I love just seeing where the yarn takes me, creating interesting textures, and adding embroidery embellishment. The above photo is a close up of a handbag I made for the Crochet Guild of America's annual design competition. It is such fun to incorporate many different types of fibers, beads and found objects into crochet work!
I will report back after the first workshop on February 1st with some photos from the workshop. I hope many of the crocheters will fall in love with freeform as I have!
