Skills You’ll Learn
Making a wonderful Christmas wreath brooch perfect for the Christmas scene
We make crochet wreaths using a variety of materials, such as red, green, gold, white, and purple beads, pearls, and glass beads, which are also Christmas colors. The beads use large round beads and 4mm pearl glass beads, so they are very easy to handle, and they are sparkling, so you can enjoy the excitement of braiding. I will also give a thorough lecture on how to thread beads and the slightly difficult points at the beginning of knitting!
Also, it is a class where you can enjoy handmade, even how to finish, using beads and pearls carefully selected by the artist. Once you've tailored it into a brooch, attach it to a coat, bag, etc., to raise the party mood.
Effects you can expect after attending the course
- Learn the fine knitting techniques of crochet, especially lace knitting
- It looks like your hands are crowded, and in fact, you learn how to do it by repeating one knitting method
- When tailoring a brooch, you can firmly learn even the details, such as how to make a beautiful tailoring and how to tie a finishing ribbon
Recommended classes for people like this

What makes this class special
You can learn “tube crochet,” which is one of the techniques of bead crochet
There are various techniques for bead crochet.
This time, I'm going to learn how to knit tube crochet, which is woven round and round in a spiral shape, among them. Once you learn how to knit in a monotonous way, you can knit without heart, and once you get the hang of it, it's a very fun knitting technique.
And there's no doubt that the collection of beautiful beads when finished will be addictive!

I think it would be great if more people would feel the joy of living and the joy of creating by facing their precious time and freeing their minds through the Bead Crochet, so I am doing dissemination and production activities every day. Pursuing the fun of making by everyone, we are pursuing ease of making, materials that are easily available, and cuteness.
