  • 5/5 from Jo Protheroe, attended Jul 2023: We had a small class so the attention given to us felt very 1:1. Emma was very patient with us - I just hope I don't forget it all now! Really enjoyed it - the time really flew thanks Emma jo

  • 5/5 from Catherine Robertson, attended Apr 2023: Excellent experience. Relaxing and enjoyable day with a lovely and very patient teacher. Thank you.
  • 5/5 from Joanne King, attended Nov 2022: I really enjoyed the lesson. I tried watching videos on YouTube to learn how to crochet but I, learn best when I’m shown something face to face. Emma was really friendly, reassuring and patient. She went at my pace so I was able to go over things again that I wasn’t sure about. I was provided with a lovely little bag with the items required for the class; crochet hook, yarn and stitch markers. I came away from the class learning all the foundation/base stitches so it’s set me in good stead to build on these and try other stitches too. Lots more practicing to do first but I’m really looking forward to starting my first crochet project very soon.
