• 5/5 from Anna Gomm, attended Oct 2026: Hannah our teacher was amazing, she was so patient and very friendly. I’m a knitter so it took me a while to get the hang of it. I loved it I will be back for more classes.
• 4/5 from Caroline Faller, attended Oct 2026: A great beginners class to crochet. Hannah was very patient and showed us the techniques involved. We learnt double and treble stitch. The course included 2 balls of wool, plus a crochet hook to take home and practice. I could have done with an extra half hour but Hannah gave us a video link we could use at home.
• 5/5 from Celia Berrett, attended Sep 2026: The ladies were very patient with me. I found it hard to master. I am 70 and it takes longer to grasp new things
• 5/5 from Debbie Wilkie, attended Aug 2026: Hannah was very kind and understanding
• 5/5 from Gayathri Govindaraju, attended Aug 2026: Very good and worthwhile
• 5/5 from Isla Bowdery, attended Jul 2026: My 14 year old daughter thoroughly enjoyed her class - she happened to be the only one booked on so the class was able to be adapted to her current level of crocheting! She learnt such a lot and picked it up so quickly, so was able to learn some extra bits as they had time. She had a generous gift bag including two beautiful yarns. The teacher was so lovely and was great with my daughter, they had a lovely time crocheting together :-)
• 5/5 from Philippa Heritage, attended Jul 2026: Attended crochet for beginners, Hannah was really good, spoke clearly and was Really informative, left feeling fairly confident to practice and perhaps attend the next level
• 5/5 from Kate Howarth, attended Jul 2026: I am a complete beginner and Hannah was so patient She explained things really well and spent time with us individually I would definitely recommend this course
• 5/5 from Nina Bayley, attended Jul 2026: Myself and my two children (age 13 and 11) were very keen to learn crochet and we booked onto a beginners crochet lesson. We were taught by Hannah and it was absolutely fantastic! She was so knowledgeable and patient. We were able to learn the basics and given tools to continue to learn and crochet at home. My daughter has taught herself treble crochet from the handout and is now making a scarf. I can’t recommend Hobbycraft Worthing and Hannah enough. Learning online simply cannot compare with live learning from an experienced a lovely person. Thank you for a great lesson.
• 5/5 from Vinny Hanley-Sandell, attended Jul 2026: Really great session, very educational. Would love to have ‘not quite beginners’ but still a newbie session! Highly recommend

• 5/5 from Sarah Mason, attended May 2026: Katie was a very good teacher. There were only three of us in the class and so she was able to really show us and communicate well. It was a calm atmosphere at the back of the shop. I wish there were follow up classes to book

• 5/5 from Linda, attended Mar 2026: Great afternoon crochet workshop, as a beginner I found the lady running the class was patient and guided us through the basics. The table set up was nice being at the back of the store so we didn’t have lots of shoppers milling around us.
• 4/5 from Paul Markwick, attended Mar 2026: The class was for my 11 year old granddaughter. She really enjoyed it but found it quite difficult to keep up with the others. Teacher recommended some one to one sessions but didn’t say how or where to book these. Any advice please.
• 4/5 from Angela Davis, attended Mar 2026: Excellent teacher who guided us through a beginner's introduction to crochet. We were two adults and one child. This was a little unfortunate as the teacher had to spend a very much greater time showing the child what to do which resulted in the two adults sitting waiting. Maybe there should be separate classes for adults and children under 12.
• 5/5 from Rebecca Webb, attended Feb 2026: Hannah was an incredibly patient, positive and knowledgeable teacher. I started the class having never picked up a crochet needle and I ended it with several successful rows of stitches and a mantra in my head to help me continue! Huge thanks Hannah. I’ll be back!
• 5/5 from Lorna J Berry, attended Feb 2026: I attended a crochet class yesterday and had such a lovely experience. The instructor was incredibly attentive and patient. Any time we didn’t understand something, she took the time to go through it again clearly and calmly. It made the whole class feel relaxed and enjoyable. I left feeling much more confident in my crochet skills. Highly recommend!

• 5/5 from Deborah Smith, attended Jun 2025: I took a beginners crochet class at Rustington which was lead by two very friendly and knowledgeable assistants… so sorry I can’t remember your names! There were 5 in our session which was held in a quiet corner of the store. We were given a bag with two balks of chunky wool, a crochet hook and instructions. During the session we completed two swatches of double and treble crochet. It was a terrific way to spend the morning learning a new skill with kind, patient and very helpful teachers. Many thanks.
