In this enchanting kids' beginners' crochet class, your little one will learn how to master the basic crochet stitches with the patient and knowledgeable award-winning crochet designer, Kate McCully. It's the perfect opportunity to dip their toes into the world of crochet creativity.
Here's what to expect in this engaging workshop:
  • Discover the basic stitches in crochet, all in the comfort of a small class size.

  • With only 5 spaces available per class, your child will receive personalised attention to help them flourish in this artistic activity.

Throughout this delightful session, Kate will guide your child through the intricate world of crochet, creating a supportive and encouraging learning environment. By the end of the class, they will leave with newfound skills and the inspiration to explore further at home.
Your tutor, Kate McCully, is not just an ordinary instructor - she's an award-winning crochet designer, author, and workshop expert. With her wealth of experience and friendly approach, Kate will empower your child to unlock their creative potential.
