Colour Texture Play

Yum Yum Cakes

In this workshop participants take a playful approach to colour planning and learn how-to combine various wide cut widths in techniques that utilize both directional and non-directional hooking. Working with an overdyed wool colour wheel we explore ways to combine bright intense colours with muted colours. Participants will colour plan and begin hooking a design of their choice during the workshop. The workshop fee includes print materials, lunches and snacks for the workshop. Patterns and materials available for purchase.
