WHY DOES MY CROCHET CIRCLE CURL?

One of the greatest joys of crochet is the ease with which you can create flat circular motifs. To hook these sorts of motifs, the stitches are worked in the round. This is just as easy as working in rows – there are just a couple of extra little rules that I’ll show you how to master in this workshop. I’ll also be explaining how to make sure your motifs stay flat, so they don’t turn into tubes. To practise, all you need is yarn and a suitable sized hook. I’m using blue DK yarn and a 4mm hook, but you can use anything you’ve got to hand.
