CROCHETING - spring 2024

This class will be offered in the Spring of 2024 as Ashley is having her first precious one late summer.

CROCHET BEGINNER CLASSES

Course Summary: 

Crochet is a creative art that allows you to make toys, blankets, or clothing with your own two hands. This art has been proven to be  relaxing, boosting productivity, and a form of stress relief. It is less intimidating than knitting as you only need one tool to create with. Once you know the basics, the large world of crochet is open to you!

Course Outline: 

This crochet class is for absolute beginners, covering basic crochet skills and terminology. The project is different from the previous semester. The end product will be a large patchwork blanket that mixes different patterns and stitches. This semester will hone crochet skills, from types of stitches to reading patterns. The yarn and pattern book will be provided. Hooks will be provided if student does not have one

Course Requirements: 

The goal of this course is to teach the basics, which will allow the students to branch out into the world of crochet easily. No previous experience needed, just bring patience in your pocket!

Category: Elective

Class size will be from 8 to 12 students.

Target levels: 6th-12th grade

Course Materials: A majority of materials are covered with the cost of the class (including a set of ergonomic crochet hooks, yarn, stitch markers, crochet needles for weaving ends, and patterns). Scissors will be provided, but if you'd like to bring your own pair to make it easier, that is perfectly fine. A notebook and sticky notes to write on are highly suggested.
