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.

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.

Teacher was lovely and very patient. I would love more choice of classes like reading through an instructions class and jargon. Or weekly class for projects.

The class with Lisa was 1st class. It was a nice small group of brand new beginners to crochet. She very friendly and super patient and I can't wait to start some one to one sessions. Mt only suggestion for improvement would be to extend the classes to a learner group to meet on a course basis so that they could advance their skills together.

Such a helpful class, really feel I know now what I'm doing, just about practicing now. The teacher was so helpful and patient, nothing too much trouble. The only thing I didnt like was how quick the time went!

Fantastic experience. A really successful session, lead by a skilled teacher, who patiently guided us through the basic stitches of crochet. Would highly recommend.

Whilst the teacher was friendly and provided a good working enviroment, the crochet skills she taught were questionable at best. Having watched Youtube videos after for further guidance, and spoken to those I know can crochet, the stitches taught were not the correct method. On top of this, despite knowing I was struggling in the class, the teacher sat doing her own crochet instead of offering guidance. My final concern is that there was no drinks facilities, not even water, and the one lady who did need the toilet had to be given the code for the employee facilities which wasn't great. I would not recommend this class for anybody wishing to learn crochet.
