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.
