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.

Imogen was friendly and very approachable. She has patience and good teaching skills. She interacted with all the class and gave lots of individual tips and advice.

I started with zero knowledge, Imogen was encouraging, talked me through my mistakes and inspired me as to how I could take this to the next level in time. I was amazed at how much I got done in the time. Will definitely do more of these.

It was fantastic! My daughter kept crocheting all the way home and didn't stop for hours. Imogen was so helpful and informative. We highly recommend this workshop.

Found this class very useful. Was the only participant so got undivided attention! Apologies but I have forgotten the name of the tutor but they explained stitches clearly, gave tips on how to hold wool and hook and repeated how to do things when not sure. Spotted if I made a mistake and told me where I was going wrong so could get it right! They made me feel comfortable and I came away feeling more confident about trying crocheting.

I was lucky and got a one to one session. I made a square using different stitches and was able to ask lots of questions.

Started off a bit worried as they weren’t expecting me when I got there and the lady had just learned crochet herself/ said she didn’t have a lot of knowledge. However it turned out to be a good class and i learnt some basic skills!
