Hooker Head Hunted! - Week 9

Yes, this hooker has been Head Hunted!  I was contacted this week, by a company and asked if I would crochet design for them!!!!

Needles to say I am still on Cloud 9 and still grinning from ear to ear - you'll find out who it is very soon I'm sure so watch this space!

This week has been a week of new beginners classes both here at my Crochet Classroom, where I took classes on Tuesday & Wednesday & at Sparrow UK in Shaftesbury!

Interestingly on my Tuesday class of 6, 3 of my new crochet ladies were left handers, but only one of them crocheted left handed!!

Here are a few photos of the progress made......

They all did very well & have all gone away with lots of homework to do before next week.

This is the Sparrow Class - there were 3 "twitters" (people from Twitter) in this class!

Needless to say, with lots of new beginners, I had lots of preparation to do  e.g. leaflet printing, which proved a hard task as my printer ran out of ink!!

I had fun though, winding wool!

My improvers class, who have returned for the 7th time (they love their crochet classes!!!) also did very well

SC is making a chevron blanket so is very sensibly using stitch markers to keep count on her 250 + chain!

Don't you just love stitch markers?? They are so useful to both Crochet & Knitting

You can use them to mark turning chains, so you don't miss them & this leads to nice straight edges, for popping them into the loop on the hook, so you don't accidentally undo your work or to mark a chain as you go along so you don't have to re count!!

I am selling these for £2 + 60p P+P (UK) for a pack of 10
