Ever admired knitted colourwork and thought crochet could never look that polished? The Waistcoat Stitch proves otherwise.

In this intermediate workshop, you will master a technique that delivers the clean, structured look of knitting with the speed and versatility of crochet. Kathy Vasic breaks down tension, hook choice and colour control, helping you tackle a stitch many crocheters avoid. You will put your skills straight to work by creating a bold beanie using up to four colours.

With guidance from a teacher with over 50 years of experience, expect challenge, satisfaction and a finished piece that surprises everyone when you say it is crochet.
