In our second session, we’ll start the class finishing the fingerless gloves. Once they are complete, we will move onto the next project which is a winter hat. Beginning at the rim and crocheting upward, we will learn about back post and front post single and double crochets . This project will introduce you to new techniques for creating snug and stylish headwear.
Class 3: Finishing Our Work (Winter Toque)

In our final class together, we will be continuing with the winter hat. In this class you will learn how to decrease your stitches to close off the hat. There will be detatchable pom poms for you to choose from if you wish.
All materials will be provided in the workshop. If you have a particular yarn you would like to buy, you are welcome to. We will be working with a 5 mm hook and light-regular worsted weight yarn, either wool or a wool blend. The hooks will be avaiable to borrow, but I recommend you buy a set of hooks.
