Crochet for Beginners (3 week course - daytime)

Enjoy three sessions learning all the crochet essentials! Debbie will teach you all you need to know to get started with your first crochet projects.

Sessions are on 3 consecutive Thursdays from 10.30am-1pm and the course fee is the total for all 3 sessions including materials.

You'll make 3-4 small, fun projects, a lanyard/scissor keep/keyring, granny squares, crochet flowers and a cute crochet heart. Each project is specifically designed to allow you to practice your skills as you learn.

No crochet skills are required - Debbie will be starting right at the beginning. Have some experience or returning to crochet? This course is also a great refresher.
