Crochet 101

Have you always wanted to learn how to crochet? Or have you been away from your hooks for a bit and need a refresher? Join us for an intro to crochet class with Michelle. You'll learn the basics, like the chain stitch and single crochet stitch.  Sessions are held each month -- select the date that works for you. Note: Our crochet classes are taught by a right-handed teacher, so left-handed crocheters should be comfortable with learning by mirror imaging the techniques.  Class Level Absolute beginner!
