Morning session - Crochet for Knitters

Are you a knitter looking to expand your fiber skills? Crochet for Knitters is the perfect class to help you transition seamlessly into crochet using the knowledge you already have!

Starting something new can feel daunting, but as a fiber artist, you already understand the essentials—yarn, stitch structure, and pattern reading. In this three-hour class, we’ll bridge the gap between knitting and crochet, applying your existing expertise to a fresh technique.

Together, we’ll explore:
✔️ Selecting the right yarn and hook
✔️ Understanding gauge in crochet
✔️ Mastering the foundation chain
✔️ Learning key stitches: single crochet, double crochet, and treble crochet

You’ll work on a simple project designed to build confidence and reinforce your new skills. Join us and unlock a whole new world of creative possibilities!

Afternoon session - Granny Square Creativity: Beyond the Basics

A granny square is like a blank canvas—simple on its own but bursting with potential when used creatively. In this three-hour class, we’ll start by exploring the foundational structure of a traditional granny square, working through the stitches and techniques that make it a staple of crochet.

But why stop at squares? For our second project, we’ll push past the ordinary and create a polygon variation, showing you how versatile this technique can be. Whether you dream of crafting a cozy blanket, a trendy hexagon cardigan, or even an emotional support crochet chicken, this class will give you the skills and inspiration to get started.

Join us and gain a whole new appreciation for the granny square as a dynamic element in your crochet journey!

Materials - Bring your own yarn - Bring at least 50g of worsted weight scrap yarn to practice your granny square. We will have yarn available for purchase to crochet the coaster sample.

Minimum class registration - 7 participants. If less than 7 registrations are received, we will refund your registration fee.

Class preparation and instructions for the day will be sent after registration.
