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.

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.

Natalie was a very kind, supportive and informative tutor on the beginners crochet course today. She was excellent at explaining the techniques and even the reasoning behind them adding for example a certain no of extra stitches to the rows according to the stitch type. I praised Natalie and explained what a difference this made to me personally to help me remember and recall the techniques. I've come away from the workshop with much more confidence to be able to eliminate mistakes so. I'm scoring Natalie 9.5/10. I would definitely return to another crochet workshop here @ Hobbycraft Gloucester.

An excellent introduction to basic crochet. Natalie was a great teacher, explained things clearly, and had endless patience when things went a bit wrong! I’m now happily practising my double and treble crochet at home with the supplies provided in the class.

Natalie was really helpful and patient with us. She did really well helping all 5 of us and gave us tips to carry on at home. She offered her expertise in the future and told us about other classes. I struggled at first and was worried it was too loose but she ensured me it was great and with practise will get tighter.
