Read ClassBento UK Reviews

This is a fun activity in Tamworth, Birmingham

Fall in love with crochet by creating a classic granny square! You’ll be able to combine beautiful colours to stitch this traditional crochet design, perfect for setting you up for so many other projects. Granny squares can be used to make blankets, garments and more – we’re here to help you get started with your first one.  

With the help of an Hobbycraft Artisan, you’ll learn how to crochet a granny square by using all the key techniques. You’ll use double and treble stitches, as well as learning how to decipher a granny square pattern and how to change yarn colours. 

There’s a kit included with the workshop to give you everything you need for the project. Within the 90-minute session, you’ll be able to create one granny square, though you can continue to practice making more once you’ve got to grips with all the skills. The kit even features a pattern for a granny square blanket to help you continue your adventure in crochet!  

This workshop is the perfect way to grow your crochet confidence, with tips and support from a pro! It’s ideal if you already have basic knowledge of the stitches but are looking to refresh yourself or develop further.

Brilliant class and my first attempt at a Granny Square. It was very relaxed and a lovely way to learn. I’ll definitely sign myself up for more.

I’ve done the beginners and granny square sessions with Katrina at the Tamworth branch. I loved it and wished Hobbycraft would put on more courses. Katrina was amazing, very patient and knowledgable. I can’t put my granny squares down now. I’m on my 27th since last week and I’m loving my crochet!

Hi, the teacher was brilliant, you couldn’t have asked for better. She helped us so much and was very patient and supportive. The only downside was the class was not long enough
