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!

I had fun with 3 other ladies and the teacher. We learnt how to start the crochet, some stitches and how to finish off the piece of work. The teacher "Scoobey" was excellent, helpful, patient and fun! So I will book the next stage of crochet course to learn more

An absolutely brilliant introduction to Crochet in my Beginners Class today- made so enjoyable by the incredible Teacher who was so friendly and knowledgeable -I've already learned the basic stitches and I can't wait to start on some squares to start a project . I am looking forward already to join another class when I get a little more experienced - I am definitely ' hooked ' on crochet !

Charlie was fantastic. I could not have asked for a better teacher. I covered as much as possible in my allocated 1 to 1 class, including things that weren’t normally covered with the beginner course. Would highly recommend Charlie to anyone starting off :-)

Was a really good introduction for 3 total beginners. Can't get over how much we learned so fast. Charlie was a great teacher and very patient. He was very good at explaining and making things simpler. And he gave us insights into different terminology and things we could aim for. He was very positive and encouraging. The starter kit was really good. Plenty for further practising. The wool colours are really nice shades. Would recommend to anyone wanting to have a go at crochet!

Charlie was extremely helpful and supremely knowledgeable. He broke the technique down and was very patient. I will definitely book further workshops. Photo of my very first piece of crochet attached.
