Our First Project
We have spend our first few weeks practicing slip stitches and building on our work with double crochet.
After practicing these skills for a while we had a go at our first project, a pencil topper! Everyone chose their own colours and had a go at making 10 rows with 10 stitches. Then we sewed on the details. Everyone did an amazing job!
