This is a four-week course where you will get to grips with all the basics needed to get you competent and confident in the art of crochet.

Tutor Merrian Holland has developed a special project that covers starting off, chaining, the basic stitches and joining motifs together for a finished item.

This course is for you if you are:

• a complete beginner and you’ve never even picked up a hook
• someone that has dabbled in crochet but never really got to grips with it
• someone that may have crocheted many years ago but need refreshing on the basic techniques
• self taught from the internet but want to make sure you’re not picking up any bad habits

As well as Merrian's expert guidance and hands on practical work, the course includes detailed class notes with photo tutorials and everything you need, including hook, yarn, needles, stitch markers and a handy project bag. Please bring with you the following: scissors, notebook, pen, and reading glasses if required.

Please bring to the workshop:

• scissors
• notebook
• pen
• reading glasses if required

Please note:

Weeks one and two are mandatory. There isn’t enough time for Merrian to go over things that one student has missed in a previous class and it’s unfair on the other students.
