Read ClassBento UK Reviews

This is a fun activity in Earlsfield, London

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.

“I took my daughter to this crocheting class at Hobbycraft, and she really enjoyed it! The teacher Jacqui gave such clear instructions and was so patient in teaching my daughter every step in making the granny square. I was amazed at how much was made by my daughter over this session. It was such a great workshop and I am so glad that we signed up for this. We will be returning for future workshops!”
