Try Amigurumi Crochet (09G36CL/23)

What will I learn?

On this try course you will begin to learn some of the terminology and have a go at making some basic stitches, that you will be able to link together to start your own amigurumi creature to take away with you. You will learn about what our follow on courses include enabling you to make a decision about carrying on with your studies.
