About this course

This course takes you from holding a hook for the first time to completing real projects with confidence. You will build the six foundational stitches, learn to read both written patterns and international symbol charts, and apply gauge and blocking so your work fits and lies flat. By the end you will have made a granny square, a stuffed amigurumi, and a simple top-down garment.
