Workshop research

I'm really excited about the craft workshop I am running on Sunday. Although I am completely organised for what we will do at my Knit your own blanket square workshop, I always like to trawl the internet for a bit of extra insight about how it might go. I'm always finding great ideas for future workshops on Pinterest or by discussing ideas with friends!

If you're thinking of organising a craft workshop in your area, here is a useful link I found on Folksy - 3 Tips for running your own craft workshop.

I might test the knitting workshop on my dad. Always a useful guinea pig. I've also seen a Batman knitted square pattern that I'd like to try out before the weekend! I made my brother-in-law some Iron Man gloves recently and they seemed to go down well! I'm thinking for the next fingerless gloves I make I'll add fleece!

Knit your own Blanket Square workshop

Knit your own Blanket Square is a great introduction to knitting on a small scale. You'll learn to knit a small square and learn how to attach different sample squares together! 
Meet a group of lovely people at Cherry Reds cafe and bar (89-90 John Bright St, Birmingham, UK) for a friendly and accessible workshop.

MY BLOODY VALENTINE

I have been making some flyers for this great crochet workshop on Thursday 12th February at 6.30pm 

It'll be really fun. I'll be showing you how to crochet an eyeball and generally having a fun time and drinking coffee/tea and having cake in the cosy, quirky surroundings of Cherry Reds cafe on John Bright Street in Birmingham, UK.

I'll be providing wool, stuffing and crochet hooks! There are 10 places available

This'll be the perfect alternative Valentine's crafting! Hearts can be fun but gory eyeballs are wicked!
