This workshop does exactly what I’d hoped: an unhurried pace for an absolute beginner to get to grips with the first stages of crochet in a friendly encouraging atmosphere. By the end I was confident I could complete my little project at home, and picked up lots of useful tips, a take home pack to refresh my memory on what I’d learned, and inspiration to continue from seeing some beautiful completed projects. An ideal first workshop if you’re “like a crochet virgin” (gratuitous 80s music reference for our lovely tutor , Jackie 😉) to set you up for the upcoming cowl or scarf and granny squares workshops.
