Helping the community of Barra and Vatersay to flourish

This year all the crafty juniors have been issued with a small crochet kit that is theres to keep.  The idea is that after a few lessons in class they can carry on this project at home on their own.   I have made this page to help them.  In the spring we will then take all the crochet and form it into a chain.

​

The pattern is:

1. 6 chain (ch)

2. Make a double crochet (dc) in the second chain from the hook. Make another 4 dc in each of the following chain stitches (5dc). Do a turning chain (tc)

3. New row do 5 dc in each of the dc stitches on the last row, tc

4. Keep on doing rows of 5dc then tc until the crochet is the same length as the cardboard template.

​

(Remember if looking online a double crochet in the UK is different to a double crochet in the US.  Make sure it is UK sites you are looking at.)
