Discover the thrill of creating the bold and adventurous Tiger Mosaic Top in our May and June workshops. This striking piece, designed by Natalia Kononova of Outstanding Crochet, combines artistry and technique, making it a truly rewarding project for confident crocheters. 

The Tiger Top is worked from the bottom up using an advanced overlay mosaic technique, bringing the eye-catching tiger motif to life across the front. The back and sleeves feature a complementary, simpler pattern that beautifully frames the design. With options for long, short, or capped sleeves, you can customise your top to suit any season—making it as versatile as it is stunning. 

Sign up for 1, or 2 classes 

During the first class Lynda will provide an overview of the construction, size and reading the pattern/graphs and get you started on the band.  We will then crochet together a small section of the pattern to demonstrate the advanced mosaic technique and reading the pattern and graph, with numerous hints and tips.   

The second optional class will be a follow up about any issues you are having with the pattern and to go over any of the stitches and sections again.  

This class is designed for intermediate crocheters who are already familir with mosaic crochet.
