About this event

This is a 4 week course (4x 2hour sessions) where you will get to grips with all the basics needed to get you competent and confident in the art of crochet.

I have developed a special project that covers starting off, chaining, the basic stitches and joining motifs together for a finished item.

This course is for you if you are :

  • a complete beginner and you’ve never even picked up a hook.
  • someone that has dabbled in crochet but never really got to grips with it.
  • someone that may have crocheted many years ago but need refreshing on the basic techniques.
  • self taught from the internet but want to make sure you’re not picking up any bad habits.

As well as my expert guidance and hands on practical work, the course includes detailed class notes with photo tutorials AND everything you need, including hook, yarn, needles, stitch markers and a handy project bag.

Frequently asked questions

I would like to attend your course but I am not able to make all the classes.

You can still get a lot out of the course, even if you have to skip some of the weeks, however, Week 1 & Week 2 are mandatory. It’s very difficult for me to re-teach a whole missed class for one student and then fit in the content for the scheduled class. I have tried to do this in the past and end

Why is the course 4 weeks long?

Many one-off classes are only a couple of hours long, promising to teach you to crochet. My immersive courses allow you to go home and practice what you’ve learnt in class & come back the following week for help with anything you’re unsure of. This allows muscle memory to build over the weeks

I do not need the starter kit as I have my own yarn and hooks.

After many years of teaching crochet, I have found that the hooks & yarn make a massive difference to how easily the student picks up the technique & how much they enjoy the experience. Unsuitable equipment invariably ends up frustrating the student, therefore I include all the materials

I am a knitter. I’d like to crochet but I’m worried I won’t be able to.

Yes, I have come across this concern many times. There still seems to be a misconception that you either knit or crochet… of course you can do both! Often those with previous experience of knitting or other types of handicrafts can find picking up a new skill relatively easy.

I use a wheelchair, is there wheelchair access to the studio?

Yes, there is a ramp into the studio. Please get in touch when you book and I will double check with the staff at the Riverhouse that everything is set up correctly for you.

The dates of this course don’t suit me, will you be running another course and if so, when?

I usually run my beginners classes several times a year. Please follow me or sign up to my newsletter via my website to be notified of new courses.
