This is a fun activity in Reading

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+.

Please note any participants under the age of 16 will require adult supervision. A ticket is not required unless they wish to craft along. 

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.

I am an experienced knitter but always wanted to have a go at crochet, so I booked. I really struggled with the slip knot!! Double crochet stitch ok but I preferred knitting. I got home and tried again and everything fell in place. Brilliant. I will book further lessons when I have finished my scarf!

Thoriughly enjoyed this class. The teacher was really great at making sure everyone understood and could do the stiches. She even suggested I video her doing each of the three stitches we were taught. This has already helped me!

Teacher was informative and went at our individual paces. We were shown how to do something and then we were individually sat with to embed what we had been shown. The course went at out speeds. We all came away confident with the skills we had been shown.

Me and my mum really enjoyed this class! Pam was a great teacher, and with only four of us in the group, it was easy to follow along and ask for help whenever we needed it. We both felt supported and learned a lot — would definitely recommend!
