Learn to crochet workshop 1

  • Abney Park Trust Stoke Newington High Street London, England, N16 0LH United Kingdom (map)

Join us to learn how to crochet in our new community room next to the cafe. This series of three workshops is for absolute beginners and those who need a reminder of the basics – but rest assure you don't even need to have ever touched a crochet hook before! Susan is an experienced workshop leader and will take you from a starting point of beginner level and beyond, to becoming naturally fluent. The sessions will be fun , with clearly set out achievable goals and will run weekly on three consecutive Tuesdays on the 8th, 15th and 22nd October.

You will receive support and hands-on help , as you learn fundamental techniques and best practices – get ready to unleash your inner crocheter! By the end of your course, you will have built up your confidence to move on to exploring more adventurous stitches, and the ability to tackle your first proper solo project. For those who have some knowledge of crochet and want to refresh, they can bring their own project.

Please bring the following to the workshop:

2x 50g Aran weight yarn (per person)

5mm or 5.5mm crochet hook  (per person)

Split ring stitch markers

Darning needle
