Beaded lanterns

Ever wanted to add a little glow to your crochet without overcomplicating things? In Beaded Lanterns, you’ll discover how simple stitches can turn into something quietly impressive.

Guided by designer Jill Rakich, you’ll crochet a small beaded lantern while learning how to add beads with a hook and shape your work using well-placed increases and decreases. The techniques are easy to follow, but open up endless possibilities, from delicate decorative pieces to larger lanterns at home.

With all materials supplied and inspiring examples on display, you’ll leave with a finished lantern, fresh confidence in shaping, and skills you can keep building on long after the workshop.

Please bring the following with you to the workshop session:

•  Three crochet hooks 3.5mm, 4mm and 1.25mm
• Crochet stitch markers
• Scissors and tapestry/yarn needle for finishing
• Notebook and pen

Workshop notes:  Please note there is a $10 materials fee, payable on the day, which includes items needed to make a lantern:

• 50g ball of 8ply cotton yarn
• three metal rings for shaping
• beads for the decorative detail
• a rechargeable light globe

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