Learn to Crochet - Walton-on-Thames

In person course at the Riverhouse Barn (4 x 2 hour classes)

Course Summary

My beginners crochet course, consists of four, two hour classes 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 learn to crochet 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.  

You’ll be making a small item which will teach you how to make a traditional and solid granny square. You will learn all the essential techniques that can be applied to most basic projects such as:
