Have you ever wished you had the skills to just pick up a crochet hook and hand craft a gorgeous gift or fabulous fashion accessory for yourself? Join us here on our alpaca farm in Murrumbateman for this fun and informative crochet workshop. The 5 hour Create @ Blackwattle session is designed to teach budding crocheters basic techniques and skills while making your very own Take Two beanie to take home.

Best suited to adventurous beginners and above, you will learn the essentials of:

- Magic Loops
- Crown shaping
- Increasing with post stitches
- How to conceal the beginning of a new round for a seamless fabric
- How to create an invisible finish

The Take Two beanie is a pattern you will learn to love, just as much as we do! During this workshop you will be working with our Blue Gum yarn base, of which 1 x 100 gram skein will be provided. Made of a beautiful blend of 55% super washed Blue Faced Leicester wool and 45% silk fibres, this range of 8ply DK weight yarns is a hardwearing option with a delicious silky sheen. 

The session also includes a light lunch and an opportunity to join us after the session for a complimentary alpaca hand feeding experience (weather permitting).
