Crochet with Noelle

For any beginners, the first class starts with chains and stitches and for children 8+ we can normally make a small plushy. Experienced students begin where they left off. Students bring home yarn and a hook to practice the proper hand position. By week four, a new 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. Experienced students will continue to advance their crochet skills and learn higher level techniques.
