Recent reviews of Beginner's Guide to Crochet
- 5/5 from Fiona Campbell, attended Jun 2026: Had a brilliant 90 minutes at Hobbycraft Yeovil with Jackie building my crocheting skills (from beginner). She was very patient, friendly and knowledgeable about the craft and I felt much more confident after the session. Thank you Jackie. Highly recommended.
- 3/5 from Barbara Pauline Johnson, attended Jun 2025: It started well but the tutor seemed to lose interest and left after an hour to go for her break and didn’t return. We all had paid for one and a half hours and not just the hour we received this was very disappointing
- 5/5 from Nigella, attended Nov 2024: Having been interested in learning Crochet for years, but also being concerned that it would be too complicated for me, I found out today that if you have a great teacher, it is really good fun - I recommend giving it a try!
- 5/5 from Bridget Ashfield, attended Oct 2024: I have struggled in the past to get to grips with basic crochet. The tutor was very patient and explained the stitches very simply with demonstrations and continual gave help and advice. I think I have got to grips with double and treble stitches as well as learning how turn at the end of row. Everything I needed was supplied and it was interesting to learn within the store, it was good value for money.
- 5/5 from Helen, attended Oct 2024: I was so glad I took this class, I have tried learning from books and online videos but it made all the difference having a face to face experience. Our teacher was great and very patient and we were provided with all the equipment we needed. Once I’ve had a chance to practice my new skills at home, I will definitely be booking another, more advanced class.
- 5/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Aug 2024: My anniversary present of learning to crochet was just perfect. The tutor was supportive and very reassuring. The teaching area was tucked away so I didn’t feel overlooked. The materials provided were of very good quality and suitable for my beginners level. I would recommend this course as it was good value and I learnt vastly more than I was expecting.

- 5/5 from Suzy Pilbrow, attended Jan 2023: Georgina was great, knowledgeable and very patient The products were lovely. The learning area, bright, clean and uncluttered.
- 5/5 from Tracy Holland, attended Dec 2022: The teacher was friendly, and very knowledgeable. I already had basic knowledge, she showed me where I was going wrong. Taught me other stitches and how to read a pattern.
- 5/5 from Anna Hutchinson, attended Sep 2022: My teacher was excellent - really patient and took her time to show me and explain each step. Didn’t feel under any pressure either despite it taking me a while to get the hang of some of the techniques. Have already booked on to a follow on class! Highly recommend.
- 4/5 from Karen Spencer, attended Aug 2022: Materials provided and the workshop was good value for money. Also good there were only two of us so plenty of individual attention. I would do another workshop.
- 5/5 from Rachel Phipp, attended Jul 2022: I had a great time on Friday. I was on a course for crochet. Teacher was lovely and very helpful. I got given a box with items in to use for the course and to take home which was a real surprise. Can’t wait to book a different class. Definitely worth while. Thank you.
