This is a fun activity in Stockton-on-Tees, Newcastle

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.

Please contact your chosen store if you are left-handed to ensure the colleague hosting will be able provide the correct support needed alternatively all of our online session's can support a left-handed learner, BOOK HERE

This workshop is also available as a private workshop for group bookings of 4+.

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.

“First thing the top floor was far too hot , then I wish it had been a bit longer cause I sort of felt a bit rushed (from someone who hadn’t even held a Crochet hook before), the wool I was given was a bit too loose ie.. the strands of the wool were always unraveling , the teacher was very patient with the 3 people in the group class & explained everything as best as she could, loved the fact that she gave us fact sheets, 2 balls of wool & the Crochet hook we had used to take home with us & a Hobbycraft Workshops bag to keep it all in . Overall I would recommend this group but I think you would get more out of it if you weren’t a total complete beginner (like the 3 of us were) . I have shown what me made during the class & the goodies we got to keep . Now I’m just waiting for a second class or a follow on class (which would be great ). PS.. I have tried 3 times to upload a photo but for some reason it won’t upload .”

“Becs was a great teacher for the beginners crochet class I attended at Hobbycraft on Teesside Park, good at explaining, and demonstrating, also patient! She was very easy to chat to, class size (3) was ideal. I couldn’t crochet at all on Monday, now completed a full square Wednesday evening.”

“Lovely relaxed friendly class. Becca from Hobbycraft at Stockton was lovely. Explained things step by step and even if you went wrong she showed us how to correct things easily. Will be back for a more advanced class soon.”
