Please bring this with you on the first day of class!*

Crochet
Age 7+
Teacher: Noelle
The first class starts with chains and stitches and for children 8+ we can normally make a small plushy. Students bring home yarn and a hook to practice the proper hand position. By week two, with practice, they can start with a more complex project, like a small animal or food of their choice, loosely following patterns. Students will all get one-on-one instruction throughout the class. By week four, a student who has practiced between all lessons can normally make any type of project they would like. If they want to learn a textile, they have the option to learn stitches other than single crochet and the magic ring. Younger students on case by case scenario.
