This workshop is suitable for complete beginners who have never crocheted before, or for anyone who may have crocheted in the past but has forgotten the main technique and the basic stitches.
Please note that this workshop is aimed at right-handed people, however, a lot of left-handers choose to learn this way (as crochet is an ambidextrous activity anyway) so that they have access to more patterns in the future. We do provide left-handed tutorials however if you prefer.

Katharine and I really enjoyed the course. Emma was very knowledgeable and explained the process clearly to two complete novices..she was also very patient and happy to go at both our paces. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn a new skill.
I had a one to one in person course with Emma she was very calm and patient. She delivered the basics in an easy to follow manor. Highly recommended. Thank you.
