Crocheting craftLAB Recap!

Sarah Richter (aka Sarah Mascara) taught over 20 people how to crochet at our Basic Crocheting Workshop at craftLAB on Sunday at The Lunch Studio!

The workshop was so popular, we will be offering another Crocheting Workshop at a craftLAB in 2012!

In the meantime, check out these awesome photos!

Pretty supplies!

Sarah brought lots of books to show everyone.

Boys crochet, too!  Sarah (l) and Graham smile for the camera.

Kids love crochet!

Nicole didn't crochet...but she did finish her awesome Honor Thy Father tattoo-inspired embroidery piece featuring Darth Vader, trantula legs and roses.  Too dope!

Basic Crocheting Workshop @ craftLAB on June 5, 2011!

Join us for a FREE Basic Crocheting Workshop at craftLAB on Sunday, June 5, 2011 from noon-3pm at The Lunch Studio!

Sarah Richter (aka Sarah Mascara) of yarnscratch will be teaching us how to make a crochet stitch sampler.


The crochet sampler above starts with the chain stitch and then goes on with 3 rows of single crochet, 3 of half-double crochet, and 3 of double crochet.

We will have some supplies available, but please bring cotton yarn and a hook (Size H-J) if you can!

Sarah will also explain how to switch colors when crocheting and, if time permits, get us all started on making a cotton dishcloth!

She hopes to have the time to show us how to crochet in the round, too.  If you ever want to crochet a doily, round pot-holder, or toys, that's the first step!
