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.

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.

Pam was really clear and patient. She supported each of us well even though our levels were quite different. Pam certainly left me a lot more confident and with plenty to try to improve my skill level.

My daughter (age 10) and I both really enjoyed the class and carried on crocheting with our new crochet skills when we returned home. The teaching was clear, positive and enjoyable and the teacher, Pam, created a really great atmosphere. We both recommend this course!

I loved this course! Pam was a brilliant instructor - very clear and very patient. The time passed really quickly but I felt I came away with a good understanding of the techniques. I’m really looking forward to practising a bit more and then booking myself on the next level course.

Having someone show you exactly how to do the stitches was so useful, it was so much more easier to understand than online tutorials. Pam, the tutor was incredibly patient and willing to take the time to explain

The course was amazing. Instructions were clearly communicated and my understanding was well checked. Proper form was shown to make sure we can keep crocheting in the future for longer. Pam was super friendly and I came away from the course with the ability to crochet and with the extra of being shown how to do a magic circle so we could further our own crochet journeys. Will definitely be on the look out for more courses!
