Helen was so lovely coming round and checking to make sure we could all do the basics... everyone was one step ahead of me but I'm more than happy with what I've achieved today!... my sample was rather wiggly because of the tension. I took a picture of it, I decided to unpick it when I got home and try again. I'm very pleased to say the second attempt is much better!

• 5/5 from Sarah Dibden, attended Nov 2024: My daughters (12 and 8 years old) and I did the beginners crochet class (1.5hours). Our teacher Anita was fantastic, SO friendly, helpful and patient! I got it wrong 5 times, but we all managed to create a little something by the end. My 12 year old was the best at it. I would definitely recommend a personal class and go back again. We will need to keep practicing at home so we don’t forget how to do it, and possibly come back for another class to learn more techniques.
