As the course continues, you’ll explore colour and creativity through the timeless granny square, learning how simple stitches and colour changes can be transformed into beautiful projects like blankets, cushions, or garments. In the final session, you’ll step into the cute and creative world of amigurumi, discovering how to work in the round, shape your crochet using increases and decreases, stuff your work, and add simple finishing touches to bring a small toy to life. Throughout the course, I will guide you clearly and patiently, with lots of encouragement, tips, and time for questions. All materials, tools, tea and coffee are included, so you can simply turn up, relax, and enjoy the process. By the end of the mini course, you’ll have a strong foundation in crochet, a range of new skills, and the confidence to continue your crochet journey at home, plus a few lovely handmade pieces to be proud of.

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.
