What you'll do
If you’re just getting started in the world of crochet and you’re looking to stitch your first project, our six-week course is the perfect opportunity! Master the granny square and hone your crochet techniques with weekly workshops that support your crafting journey.
This workshop series is ideal for a beginner with basic crochet knowledge. You’ll learn how to create five different granny square designs, as well as how to put them together to create a full blanket. Within these designs, you’ll be learning stitches such as the bobble stitch, spike stitch and more!
The store colleague leading your workshops will be on hand to guide you through the steps of the crochet project, ensuring your confidence blossoms through the weeks. You’ll be able to create each design within the scheduled workshop time, but you’ll need to create the remaining squares between workshops using the skills you’ve learned. This is a great way to get your practice in!
Workshop Overview
Week 1: The Hobbycraft Colleague will teach you to master the classic granny square technique.
Week 2: This tutorial will focus on creating the perfect solid granny square.
Week 3: Learn how to spike stitch a square.
Week 4: Try your hand at a textured square.
Week 5: The Hobbycraft Colleague will show you how to make a bobble stitch.
Week 6: Build your blanket using all the squares you’ve previously made during the course, joining each one together to complete your colourful granny square blanket.
At the end of the course, you’ll have crafted a beautiful crochet blanket that you can continue to add more squares to, if you wish. You’ll also have gained confidence when it comes to those all-important crochet stitches, ready to take on your next big project.

Ellen Sharp • May 2022
The instructors were great and approachable. The materials were very nice. The booking said six session but the booking didn't take into count Easter Sunday, do the class has gone a week later than expected.
I'm looking forward to seeing my blanket complete as I have one more week left.
Catherine Booth • May 2022
It was a very good experience. Kobe was a good teacher, calm, informative, reassuring, knowledgeable and supportive. I thoroughly enjoyed the 6 weeks and have gained a lot of confidence with my Crochet. Thank you Kobe
Olga Moore • Apr 2022
I booked this course in order to improve my very "rusty" crochet skills having not picked up a crochet hook properly for over 40 years
Over the six weeks you get to try a variety of stitches for your granny squares. Each week you get the chance to work on one square during the session snd then complete another 5 during the week which gives you a chance to practice what you have learnt. In the final week you get to start putting your blanket together, it will take a bit more time to finish completely. Sarah was very patient and supportive over the weeks sharing tips other crochet skills. I have thoroughly enjoyed the sessions and am now becoming a bit of a crochet addict
Janette Dumble • Apr 2022
Pauline was so patient and good fun. It is clear she is passionate re crochet and talented
Very grateful to have been taught by her
Rita Fabling • Apr 2022
I am absolutely new to crochet but my tutor was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble for her. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn. The venue was in the store but with customers milling around it wasn't the best place to have it. I liked the materials although the cotton caused a few problems by splitting sometimes. Yes, i would give the workshop AND the tutor 10/10
Sarah Dolata • Apr 2022
Fabulous way to learn a new hobby! Would thoroughly recommend to anyone that likes a challenge and is prepared to spend time between the lessons creating their granny squares. The teacher is clearly an absolute expert and willingly shares her skills and expertise in a very enthusiastic and inspiring manner. Her passion for crochet is contagious! Thank you!

The classes were absolutely fantastic. Jacqui was patient and kind and has made me fall completely in love with crochet. It was exceptional value for money and I would so recommend. Thank you Jacqui you are an incredible teacher!
Sharon Wheatley • Feb 2022
This is a great workshop for both beginners and improvers. New stitches are learned each week within a supportive group. Jacqui is a fantastic teacher who makes lessons fun and instils confidence. The venue away from the shop floor is good and the materials provided are excellent. Can’t recommend highly enough.
Zubaida Khan • Feb 2022
My teacher Amanda was excellent,
patient and practical with lots of tips and tricks that took me from an absolute beginner to a granny square master!
Well worth the time and the cost, highly recommend.
