Learners Permit to Crochet
Are you curious about crochet? Come learn the basics in this 4-week class. Participants will start by learning the chain and single crochet stitch to make coasters. Then we will learn the double crochet and slip stitches to add a decorative border to our coasters and get us ready for makinf Double Crochet Squares. Next we will create two large granny-ish squares which can be seamed together to make a market bag or seamed on to a pillow to accessorize your home–you choose! To finish off our bags, we will use the half double crochet stitch to add handles so our bags are ready to take to the store.
Graduates of Learner’s Permit to Crochet class will be ready to take on any easy crochet pattern out there, from hats to amigurumi, baby blankets to cardigans!
