Cut. Spin. Crochet. Turn an old t-shirt into a glasses case in one afternoon. Zero experience needed, everything included!
About this Event

You know that t-shirt sitting in your closet that you never wear anymore but can't bring yourself to throw out?
Bring it here.

In this three hour workshop, you are going to cut a shirt into strips, turn it into your own soft stretchy yarn, and crochet it into a glasses case you will actually use.

From old t-shirt to finished handmade accessory, all in one afternoon! Two skills learned, one problem solved, and something genuinely satisfying to show for your Sunday.

This is one of our most popular workshops, back by popular demand for the third time.

There is something really special about making your own material from scratch before making something with it!

No crochet experience needed.

We teach you everything step by step. T-shirt yarn is thick, soft, and one of the most beginner friendly materials to learn on. If you have crocheted before, even better.


What to bring:

An old t-shirt, jersey dress, cotton tank top, leggings, or any soft stretchy fabric you want to give a new life. The softer and stretchier the better. Do not have anything to bring? No problem, we have fabric on hand for you.


What is included:

All crochet materials and tools, yours to keep Step by step guidance throughout the whole workshop Snacks and complimentary tea bar

What you will make: Your own handmade t-shirt yarn from scratch A crocheted glasses case using that yarn, yours to take home


Spots are limited. Grab yours early!

Tu connais ce t-shirt dans ton garde-robe que tu ne portes plus jamais mais que tu n'arrives pas à jeter?

Amène-le ici.

Dans cet atelier de trois heures au Dr. Lemco's Creative Club, tu vas le couper en bandes, le transformer en ta propre laine douce et élastique, et le crocheter en un étui à lunettes que tu vas vraiment utiliser. D'un vieux t-shirt à un accessoire fait à la main, tout ça en un après-midi. Deux skills appris, un problème réglé, et quelque chose de vraiment satisfaisant à montrer pour ton dimanche.

C'est un de nos ateliers les plus populaires, de retour par demande populaire pour la troisième fois. Il y a quelque chose de vraiment spécial à fabriquer ton propre matériau from scratch avant de créer quelque chose avec. Tout le processus ressemble à un tour de magie.

Aucune expérience en crochet nécessaire. On t'enseigne tout étape par étape. La laine en t-shirt est épaisse, douce et un des matériaux les plus accessibles pour apprendre. Si tu as déjà crochété, encore mieux.

Ce qu'il faut apporter: Un vieux t-shirt, robe jersey, camisole en coton, leggings, ou n'importe quel tissu doux et élastique que tu veux donner une nouvelle vie. Plus c'est doux et élastique, mieux c'est. T'as rien à apporter? Aucun problème, on a du tissu sur place pour toi.

Ce qui est inclus: Tout le matériel de crochet et les outils, à toi pour toujours Guidance étape par étape pendant tout l'atelier Collations et bar à thé gratuit au Dr. Lemco's

Ce que tu vas faire: Ta propre laine en t-shirt faite from scratch Un étui à lunettes au crochet avec cette laine, à toi pour ramener chez toi

Les places sont limitées. Prends la tienne tôt!
