Taught by Vincent Green-Hite
Your crochet skills will be nothing short of stellar after this class with Amigurumi designer Vincent Green-Hite of Knot Bad. Amigurumi is the Japanese art form of crocheting or knitting dolls, and Vincent teaches you how to crochet an astronomically adorable shooting star. He goes over the foundations of Amigurumi like making a magic ring, working the single crochet stitch, increasing, and decreasing, and you'll see how combining basic shapes - balls, cones, and tubes - can result in super fun characters. You'll also get all of Vincent's tips for sewing, stuffing, and embroidering facial features, and your finished shooting star doll will be a cuddly reminder that your ability to crochet is out of this world.
Learn how to:
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Worsted weight yarn in Yellow, Blue, Pink, Black - Vincent uses Big Twist Value Worsted Yarn in Varsity Yellow, Cornflower Blue, Medium Rose, Black

I’ve always loved Colour and playing with colour, but this class has intensified my colour relationship.
Through taking the class and reading Lorene’s beautiful book, I now search for more than the obvious colours in all of nature’s bounties.
Thank you Lorene.
I’m hoping that there will be more classes in the future with Lorene Edwards Forkner.
