Structure, texture and space: freeform crochet with rope

Break away from flat fabric and discover how crochet can hold its own shape. This hands-on workshop explores freeform crochet using rope as a bold structural element, guided by acclaimed designer Leah Oliver.

You’ll learn how to choose the right rope and yarn combinations, integrate rope seamlessly into your work, and build form, texture, and space without relying on patterns. Designed for curious intermediate crocheters, the session balances technical grounding with creative freedom.

Participants leave with a sculptural foundation piece, practical confidence, and adaptable techniques suitable for garments, accessories, homewares, and more.

Please bring the following with you to the workshop session:

• 4ply yarn in any fibre (at least 50g)
• 3mm crochet hook (smaller hook options can be useful to achieve a tight tension)
• Crochet stitch markers
• Scissors and tapestry/yarn needle for finishing
• Notebook and pen

 

This session will be delivered in-person only - no online offering will be made available.
