Learn to crochet a stunning garment that’s easy to make and easy to wear!

“Hexagon”-style granny square sweaters are everywhere right now, and the Blooming Bomber Jacket is a fun and classy version that’s perfect for beginner crocheters and beyond! The clever geometric construction uses classic granny square techniques to create a flattering boxy jacket that’s easier than it looks to make. Decorative bobbles and flowers on the sleeves and pockets take your jacket to the next level of style.

This is an Advanced Beginner crochet class with (3) 2-hour sessions. Students should already know chain stitch, single crochet stitch, and double crochet stitch. Prior experience crocheting in the round will be helpful. You will begin the jacket in class after choosing your colors and reviewing the pattern together. Students will learn pattern reading, basic garment construction, and advanced granny square techniques!
