Get $10 off my classes with coupon code RABIDYU1IY10 until Dec 31, 2024. Look through my classes at https://outschool.com/teachers/Brooke-Rabideau and enter the coupon code at checkout. If your student has never crochet before, this Beginning Crochet Class is the perfect place to start! Students will learn how to hold the hook and yarn and start a project. Students will also learn the basic crochet stitches, abbreviations, and begin reading patterns. Topics will be based on student's ability. Some students will need more weeks on the beginning topics. I like to keep my classes small so I can give as much individual attention and feedback as I can. Since my classes are limited to 4 students, I'm able to make sure the faster learners continue to progress while the new students can still jump in from the begging and learn. Topics we will cover in class: Week 1 How to hold the hook and yarn How to start a project with the slip knot and chain stitch How to work a row of single crochet Intro to reading abbreviations Week 2 How to begin reading abbreviations How to turn How to work single crochet rows Week 3 Review on abbreviations and reading patterns Review on slip knot and chain stitches Review on working a row of single crochet How to finish off a project Week 4 How to start a project How to work a single crochet in a project How to count the rows How to finish off a project Week 5 Review from previous weeks Intro to single crochet increase and single crochet decrease Week 6 Review of previous weeks How to make a triangle with single crochet and single crochet decrease Week 7 Review of previous weeks How to finish off a triangle by single crochet around the edges

I’ve sold over 800 physical items, 6k patterns, had over 60k downloads of my free patterns in my shop, over 200k visits to my blog for crochet patterns, and over 100k views for my crochet tutorials on YouTube. I’m excited to start sharing my passion and techniques with students.
