What to Expect
Step into the world of fibre arts and learn to crochet in a fun, supportive environment. This workshop is designed for young people aged 12 to 17 who want to start a simple crochet project from scratch. You'll learn how to create neat chains and combine stitches to form beautiful patterns.
You'll also get to keep your crochet hook and yarn, so you can continue crafting your project at home long after the workshop ends. Crochet is a unique skill that machines can't replicate, making this a special opportunity to embrace a timeless craft.
Whether you're a complete beginner or have dabbled before, this class will guide you through the basics and inspire your creativity.
