Class Experience

Beginner Level
In this beginner crochet class, kids (ages 8-10) will learn and practice the basics of crochet while making fun, small projects. Each week, I’ll guide students step by step on Zoom, helping them master skills like holding the hook and yarn, making a slip knot, chaining, and single crochet.

What We’ll Cover:
How to start a crochet project (slip knot, chain, and single crochet)
Understanding basic stitches and patterns
Practicing tension and consistency
Creating small beginner-friendly items like bookmarks, coasters, or simple squares
Troubleshooting mistakes and learning how to fix them

I use live demonstrations, close-up camera angles, and easy-to-follow instructions so kids can see every step clearly. I encourage interaction by asking students to show their work on camera and providing feedback in real time. Questions are always welcome, and I help each student at their own pace.

This class is designed for beginners.  Those who want ongoing support are encouraged to join the Crochet Fun for Beginners Club that meets weekly.

Learning Goals

How to start a crochet project with basic stitches (slip knot, chain, and single crochet)
Understanding basic stitches and patterns, learning to read basic pattern codes

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a self-taught crocheter with over 25 years of experience and a deep passion for the craft. Over the years, I have honed my skills through personal projects, custom orders, and even running a crochet business. I understand the challenges beginners face and love breaking down techniques in a simple, approachable way.

In addition to my crochet experience, I have worked with children in various settings, teaching hands-on skills with patience and encouragement. My goal is to create a fun and supportive learning environment where kids can gain confidence in crochet at their own pace. I enjoy making learning interactive and engaging, ensuring each student feels successful and excited to keep stitching!
