Our teacher Pals was brilliant, so patient and made the instructions simple to follow. We learned how to do double and treble crochet, also slip knots, how to change colour and increase and decrease. Enjoyed the whole experience. I purchased this class for my sons girlfriends birthday and myself. It was easy to get the gift card online.

I took the beginners guide to crochet today. Was spoilt by benefitting from a one-to-one lesson which was really useful for a beginner. I learnt to "chain", "double crochet" and "treble crochet" plus given handy tips on different yarn and hook sizes. My teacher was very patient and helpful. I came away with a bag, some yarn, hook and course notes to help me with practicing what I had learnt. I would thoroughly recommend this workshop to anyone thinking of taking up a new crafting hobby.

Pals, our teacher gave very clear, patient guidance to each of us. This was accompanied by excellent written instructions and useful teaching aids. The choice of wool and needles was very sensible for a beginner like me. She also put us at our ease, creating a friendly, relaxed atmosphere, adding to the enjoyable and positive experience.

Very good introduction. Teacher was really clear and attentive in helping everyone individually and as group. Would be good if all bags had 2 different colours of wool. Would definitely recommend this class

My daughter and I had booked a private lesson. Our teacher was very patient and taught us what we wanted to know. We could do some basic crochet so we wanted to know how to do the magic ring to get us started with amigurumi. She explained the crochet terms and we made a crochet ball together. I would highly recommend this class for beginners like us to get a good understanding.

This worked well for me, having the face to face contact and the tutor there to show me where I was going wrong made all the difference. I had been trying to learn from videos online but this just wasn’t working well for me. This workshop was perfect. As a left handed I am always concerned that the tutor might not be confident teach but Pal was perfect and she helped me to see and put right my mistakes. New skills learned and in a safe learning environment. Thank you!
