I’m terribly excited!

I am now officially a crochet instructor at Michaels, specifically, the Michaels at Dixie Mall, where I am also a sales floor associate.

My first class will be on Tuesday, March 6th, from 6:30 – 8:30 pm, called Discover Time For Crochet. In this inaugural class, we will be learning how to do Tunisian Crochet. This class is perfect for both absolute beginners (those who have never crocheted before) and for crocheters who are looking for a new technique to learn.

In this class we will be making this fingerless glove:

We’ll cover the Tunisian Simple Stitch and the Tunisian Purl Stitch. If we have time, we’ll touch on the Tunisian Knit Stitch and other interesting possibilities presented to us by this neat technique.

This class costs $25. If you sign up on March 3rd, you’ll get a 25% discount! For supplies, you’ll need one ball of Patons Astra yarn and a 5mm afghan hook. Depending on what coupons you have, these supplies will cost somewhere between $10 and $15. We’ll start the class with a trip to the yarn department, so if you’re not sure about exactly which supplies to buy, we can get them during the class.
