Workshop 23: Tinna’s Mosaic Purses

Tinna Thorudottir Thorvaldar (aka Tinna Hekl) from Iceland is one of the hottest designers in the world of Mosaic crochet and it’s one of the most popular crochet techniques too! It looks difficult but it can be easy if you learn the tips and tricks from an experienced mosaic crochet enthusiast.

Mosaic crochet is a way to work with colours while crocheting to bring out a pattern in your work. It is crocheted over two rows, meaning that you work with one colour for one row and then change to the second colour for one row. In this workshop you will make your own Mosaic Crochet purse learning the beautiful “Apache Tears” design using only 2 simple stitches.

You will receive an email prior to the conference with a complimentary copy of the Mosaic Purses pattern PDF to print at home featuring 2 different mosaic designs.

This stunning way to create beautiful works of art is a speciality class brought to you by Crochet Guild Australia Executive Committee member, Carolynne Cannon.
