Intro to Finger-crochet MASK REQUIRED

Finger crochet is crochet without a traditional hook. We are the hook so in this class, you will learn to be a tool of the craft.
About this Event

With these skills acquired, we will work together to make a foundational piece that can be worked into a scarf, headband or small bag or pouch. The class will be 2 hours though it is possible to complete the course in less time depending on what you're working on, how fast you catch on and how fast your hands move though this isn't a race and this craft is especially more of a meditative take your time practice.

This class is for anyone interested in learning how to finger-crochet. It is beginner friendly if you're new to fiber art but experience in crocheting with a hook will give some a familiarity with some aspects like what a chain in/looks like

The class is taught by NYC artist Lo. Lo is a New York City–based artist whose creative practice spans many disciplines, from singing to crochet. Working with her hands has been a lifelong passion, rooted in her upbringing in South Carolina, where she learned to braid hair alongside her mother and grandmother. That foundation naturally evolved into fiber arts, leading her to explore finger-knitting for several years and, more recently, finger-crochet. Along the way, she also spent time needle-knitting and briefly practiced traditional hook crochet. Since beginning her finger-crochet journey in March, Lo has developed a deep connection to the craft and finds joy in sharing her work and creative process with others.

This is a MASK REQUIRED event.

As with all NYC Resistor events, this class is 18+ and governed by our Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct, as well as accessibility information, can be found at www.nycresistor.com/participate/.
