Ready to swap your screen time for some "string time"? Join me for a fun, laid-back crochet workshop in London where we’ll turn a ball of yarn into your new favourite hair accessory! Whether you're a total "hook-phobe" or have tried a YouTube tutorial and given up in frustration, we'll be right there to guide your hands until it clicks.
If you’ve ever looked at a crochet hook and thought, "How does that even work?" -- this is the class for you. We aren't here to be perfect, we’re here to have a laugh, maybe get our yarn a little tangled, and leave with a beautiful, handmade scrunchie that you can actually wear (or gift to a friend who will be very impressed).
What to expect:
  • Learn the "magic" of holding a crochet hook without dropping it.
  • Master basic stitches that are actually easy once you see them in person.
  • Learn how to crochet directly onto an elastic (the secret to a perfect scrunchie!).
  • Tips on how to keep your tension even (and what to do when it isn't).
  • A zero-stress environment filled with good vibes and plenty of "Aha!" moments.
By the end of the workshop, you'll have mastered a host of new crochet skills -- and have your completed scrunchie to take home and wear with pride!
What you'll get
  • All the colourful yarn your heart desires.
  • Crochet hooks and elastics.
  • Tea and biscuits.
Knowledge required
Beginner-friendly.
What to bring
You're welcome to bring your favourite elastic hair tie, but they will be provided.

I learned how to crochet when I was 12, starting with home pieces like rugs. A few years later, I discovered the amigurumi technique. I thought I wouldn't like it because of the small stitches and the patience required for sewing, but I fell in love! I love being able to create dolls and animals.
Besides that, I also enjoy making bags and some clothing. My favourite piece, however, is the shawl. What I love most about crochet is the magic of seeing a simple ball of yarn transform into something tangible, whether it's a bag, an amigurumi, or a shawl.
Even though I've been crocheting for over a decade, my journey as a teacher is a more recent chapter. For many years, my craft was a personal passion, a way to relax and create for myself, friends, and family. In recent years, I have started sharing my knowledge informally, teaching friends and small groups the foundations of crochet.
In my classes, I focus on making the process clear and stress-free, especially for beginners. I have experience guiding people through their first stitches and helping them master techniques like the Magic Ring and tension control. I am now transitioning into formal teaching and I am excited to help the ClassBento community discover the joy of creating their own handmade characters.
