Maker
Kat first learned to crochet as a child, taught by her beloved grandmother who was an arts and crafts teacher herself, and that early spark for creativity has stayed with her ever since. She began designing her own crochet patterns in 2020 and moved naturally into teaching in 2022, where she discovered how much she enjoys helping others grow their skills. Kat has taught both one-to-one sessions and group workshops of up to 14 students, supporting beginners taking their very first stitches as well as improvers ready to take on new challenges. Her students often describe her as patient, encouraging, and able to explain techniques in a calm and friendly way that puts everyone at ease. With a true passion for making and sharing the joy of crochet, Kat loves guiding people toward that magical moment when things click and they feel proud of what their hands can create.
FAQs
Even though this class is beginner friendly, it is not suitable as a first introduction to crochet as it involves some more complicated stitches like magic circle. I would recommend attending the absolute beginners workshop first. Please contact me if you are not sure if this workshop is for you.
Absolutely, these workshops are designed for both right- and left-handed crocheters.
