The Crochet for beginners course is a comprehensive introduction to crochet. We will start by introducing the crochet hook, working out how to hold the yarn, and start the foundation chain. Crochet stitches are easy and we will cover all 3 major stitches in this course. We will finish by learning how to make a granny square, learning to finish your work properly and even try joining squares so you can attempt a project. Designed for complete beginners or anyone wanting a refresher, this course will give you tips and tricks to achieve even tension, choose wisely when buying yarn and understanding diagrams and patterns.
Please bring $21 payable to the tutor to the first class for your complete crochet pack. The pack includes two balls of merino wool and a crochet hook.
Please bring your own scissors, ruler or tape measure, pen and paper. You may also want to bring a wool needle to tidy up ends.
