• 5/5 from Khadijah Hussain, attended Oct 2026: Excellent class, Chrissie was an amazing teacher and very enthusiastic. She has re-ignited my joy in crochet!
• 5/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Oct 2026: Beginners Guide to Crochet. Clear instruction, the teacher was excellent. I really enjoyed it, it was first for me. I am happy I was able to create something!
• 5/5 from Kathryn Macdonald, attended Sep 2026: I have tried to learn to crochet many many times before, so was treating this workshop as my last hope, with low expectations of success. But it was, surprisingly, very informative, straightforward and clear. The tutor explained practical things that gave me those "ah hah! THAT's why" moments so I really understood what I was doing and why. It was taken at a good pace, with plenty of opportunity to pause and redo, ask questions etc. very engrossing and the time flew by. I was hesitant about signing up for the course, as it seemed like a luxury spend, but I am so glad that I did as I thoroughly enjoyed it. The tutor was great, the resources (kit and recording to refer back to) are much better quality than they need to be. Will not hesitate to sign up for another workshop. Also felt it was a great delivery for those who are socially anxious, as you could do it without being seen or heard, no pressure.

• 4/5 from Catherine West, attended Sep 2026: She was great! It started out well, but I think I need a face to face class as anything other than a basic chain stitch had me confused.

• 5/5 from Flavia Vaz, attended Jun 2026: Really fun experience, got more confidence in crocheting and really good understanding on why certain things look the way the do.
• 5/5 from Jayne Hawkes, attended Jun 2026: Lovely teacher, she was so understanding and happy to go over steps until you are comfortable. You work on 2 squares, one a double stitch and the other a treble. You get 2 reels of yarn and a crochet hook so more than enough to practice with after. It was a really friendly class. I was buzzing after.
• 5/5 from Colleen Spratlkng, attended Jun 2026: I was fortunate to be the only customer on the class. Georgia was very welcoming and knowledgable. She paid great attention to my crotchet during the class. I thoroughly enjoyed the class, the pace was perfect. Georgia was Super. Thank you.
• 4/5 from Suzanne Sutherland, attended Jun 2026: I was in a small class and had a very patient, kind, and knowledgeable teacher. I learned how to make a slip knot and do chain stitches, double crochet and treble crochet. The only downside was the low bandwidth so the picture quality and sound were not always good. However, I would still recommend doing this Beginner's Guide to Crochet. You also get a cute reuseable bag that contains a crochet hook, two balls of wool/yarn and some very lovely tea bags!
• 5/5 from Laurie Robinson, attended May 2026: Great workshop. Gina explained the stitches and techniques well which made it easy to understand.
• 5/5 from Joyce, attended May 2026: An excellent class. Chrissie explained everything so well, repeating when necessary so I could progress. She made me feel so much more confident in my abilities and helped me think I could master crochet if I keep practising.
• 5/5 from Tracey Glynn, attended May 2026: This was an online class. Christie was lovely, and clear on how to do things. She gave us freedom to do things how was most comfortable for us, but within the boundaries of the basic rules on how to actually crochet. An hour and a half zoomed by, and I was brain exhausted at the end, but happy that I now have the basics to practice and master.
• 5/5 from Emma Epivent, attended May 2026: I really enjoyed my crochet class although I was sad it had to be online...

• 5/5 from Brenda Roshier, attended Apr 2026: Really easy to follow Gina was a great teacher! A lovely creative afternoon session. Thank you.
• 5/5 from Fiona Marshall, attended Apr 2026: Chrissie is fantastic! Brilliant class, really easy to follow. I just hope she doesn't mind the spam email I will send her to see if my crochet looks ok. Honestly, such a lovely girl. Just going to see what I can book next with crocheting as completely obsessed now. Also I must say the craft pack that was sent for the course was amazing including teas bags. Thank you!

• 5/5 from Kathryn Lewis, attended Mar 2026: I took the introduction to crochet and am so glad I did. The pace was just right, our teacher was patient and went over each step a few times.

• 5/5 from Kate, attended Feb 2026: Gina held a brilliant class. She explained each step clearly and I cannot believe how I produced the work I did. I am so glad I took this course.
• 4/5 from Jo Hooper, attended Feb 2026: I enjoyed the workshop but was glad that I'd had chance to do a little practice beforehand, using a book. Chrissie was calm and clear but I think it would have been helpful if she had said to watch her demonstrate for a minute before we tried ourselves, as I found myself trying to do both at the same time, which didn't work! I appreciate the links that were sent afterwards to YouTube, the tutorial and a book. Thank you!
