This is a fun activity in Harlow, Chelmsford

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.

Please note, our workshop spaces in some stores are located in open areas and we will endeavour to minimise interruption from other crafters.

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.

As a small group of 4 our teacher was able to get us all started and adjust her teaching according to how we did. Her instructions were clear and she coped really well having a left-handed person in the group.

Ellie our teacher was very patient and excellent at explaining and helping people, she was trying to teach 3 right handed people and 1 left which made it more difficult for her but she did a fab job and we look forward to continuing what we have learnt

Ellie was a great teacher! Really friendly and welcoming. Took the time to explain well and show you steps again if needed. Helped you to learn where you had made a mistake and why and how to correct it. Lovely session would recommend highly!

Ellie had a mixed class of left and right handers, and she was so patient and encouraging with all of us! She taught us how to make the starting chain, how to do double crochet, and we worked on our tension squares, then she showed us how to cast off and sew the ends of the wool in. I really enjoyed it and have signed up for the Beginners Next Steps class now! Thanks so much for your patience, Ellie
