I really enjoyed this class, the teacher was very good at explaining visually with clear instructions. She was very helpful if we were stuck on anything. She gave us lots of info & tips at the end of the class. I highly recommend this class for Beginners!!

Ailidh was fantastic. Great at explaining and very patient. She gave us all our tools and step by step sheets before explaining each stich, what it would be used for then demonstrating the stich. She took time to come round and watch as we did the stitch providing help and advice. Very friendly and patient. Great workshop.

Ailidh was a great teacher. My daughter has been wanting to learn to crochet for a while and asked me to accompany her to the class. I am the least crafty person in the world and Ailidh even managed to teach me how to do 3 different styles of crochet! Ailidh has a very helpful and personable approach. She is a real credit to Hobbycraft at Fort Kinnaird and we hope to attend another one of her classes in the future.

This class is underrated, I cant remember the girls name who was showing me what to do today. She gave me time to refresh my memory on crochet. Give some good pointers on what wool is best when learning. Got a wee goody bag at the end aswell. Would like to see more classes. Maybe let people come into the shop and crochet away and leave some projects that people can look at and maybe buy.
