Get hooked on crochet with our beginner’s tutorial! Enjoy this relaxing craft as you get to grips with the simple skills you’ll need to stitch beautiful designs, with one of our craft experts on hand to guide you through the steps.

This workshop provides a wonderful introduction to the world of crochet, perfect if you’re a complete beginner. Through the course of the workshop, you’ll learn double stitch and treble stitch. You’ll also be shown how to create a chain, working in rows to create a tension square.

You’ll have a craft kit included, ensuring you’ve got the yarn and hook you need. It’s a great opportunity to pick up techniques you can then put into practice when you move on to other patterns.

Throughout the tutorial, you will be able to ask any crochet questions you may have.

Keeping everyone safe
At Hobbycraft, we want our workshops to be enjoyable, inclusive, and safe for everyone. Some workshops are suitable for children, and where this is the case, a parent or legal guardian is responsible for supervising their child at all times unless the workshop is clearly stated as suitable for independent attendance. Our colleagues and instructors are there to guide the activity and support a safe environment, and if any concerns about safety or wellbeing arise during a workshop, these should be raised with a member of staff straight away.

I really enjoyed the class. I just wish there were more classes to learn how to do more things, like learning how to make clothes, or if there were different learning levels. That would be very interesting.

Kate was an amazing and patient teacher. She was very clear and had time to help each of us individually. The small class size and Kate's approach meant we we were all able to work at our own speed but all mastered the basics. I was a complete beginner but now feel I am able to make progress from here.

Relaxed, well paced class with Kate. Didn't feel under pressure and she managed quite a variety of skill levels while making us all feel we were achieving! Good fun and flew by. Would've been up for longer workshop!

I’m very happy with the class. Kate was very friendly and patient. I was a bit nervous as I had no idea how crochet works at all. Kate explained every step very well, we practiced it together, and in the end I managed to learn the basic techniques in crochet and build up some confidence. Definitely recommend it.
