Charlie was an amazing crochet teacher- calm and kind! He gave clear instructions which he was able to repeat. He had the perfect pace of instruction and was constantly reassuring and offering praise to everyone within the workshop. Thank you, Charlie

I did beginners class to crochet. Teacher(sorry I forgot her name) was brilliant, explained everything really well, was happy to repeat anything we needed, gave group support and individual support. She was friendly and patient. I will definitely practice at home and go back for another class. Highly recommend.

Workshop was very enjoyable. Our tutor spent time explaining what we were to do & came round to us individually to see how we were doing. She was readily available if we were stuck & gave us tips to make life easier for us. She explained what further courses entailed to expand on our knowledge.

It was excellent and fun. There were fewer people than I imagined- but that was a positive. Our teacher, Scooby, was very pleasant, very clear, very helpful, very encouraging. I was pleasantly surprised at receiving a bag containing a hook, 2 balls of yarn and printed help sheets.

The class was wonderful. Both my mum and I have little to no experience crocheting and this class was perfect for complete beginners. You get everything you need provided for you (yarn, hook, instructions). We started with a slip knot and made a chain to begin with. Then moved onto double stitches and trebble stitches. I reccomend the class to anyone wanting to start crochet and for those than learn best with someone teaching them! Our teacher was very patient and explained everything so well! And it was only a class of 4 so there was enough time for everyone to have help when needed. I will be booking the 'Next Steps' class soon! Thank you!
