Hooked on Crochet! A New Pattern Every Week
Class experience
Are you absolutely hooked on all things crochet? Then join us every week as we talk about our latest completed projects, current ongoing projects, and practice both classic and modified stitches crochet social club! This is an intermediate to advanced level crochet club, and is open to all blanket makers, beanie designers, amigurumi crafters, and everyone in between. For practice with beginner-friendly techniques, please see the listing for my Crochet Social Club, linked here:...
Students will get together to talk about crochet, troubleshoot challenging patterns, and practice giving feedback and constructive criticism to each other in a friendly and relaxed environment.
I have been making crocheted items for several years, from hats and blankets for hospital donations to custom amigurumi and household items. I am passionate about using natural fibers and traditional techniques, and I love to guide new crocheters toward the projects and materials that best meet their personal interests and goals.
Basic crochet tools include hooks, yarn, scissors, and something to mark stitches with. Below are my recommendations for learners who are new to crochet. A pair of scissors and something to mark stitches with. Learners can use actual "stitch markers" which clip into the stitches. Alternatives are bobby pins, safety pins, scrap yarn, or anything else that is small and can be threaded through stitches. Hooks: Size 5, 5.5, or 6 (also labeled as H, I, or J). Yarn: The most common yarn is called "Worsted Weight." This is a good medium yarn that can work up quickly and make a complete project in a reasonable amount of time. Worsted weight is sometimes alternatively labeled as Size 4, medium weight, or Aran weight. Learners who are just starting should find an simple acrylic yarn in a light or medium color that they like (black yarns are notoriously hard to work with!). I recommend plain, medium to light colored acrylic yarn because it is easy to handle, is soft and doesn't fray, and usually shows stitches well so that new crocheters can see their work. It is often harder to see stitches with yarns that are very dark in color. Faux fur yarns, textured yarns, and novelty yarns can be too unwieldy or uncooperative for crocheters who are just starting out and still learning basic stitches. Yarns that are too bulky are often simply too heavy for new crocheters to handle, while yarn that is too fine can be frustrating because it works up very slowly and requires many more stitches to make a decently sized project.
Learners may need to use scissors, needles, and other tools to work on any projects in class.
