Totally spoil yourself with this indulgent 5-day, 5-night retreat in the heart of The Shropshire Hills. Each day you will have a one-to-one session with Rachel, followed by time to practise and explore in your own time either in the studio or your cosy accommodation. You'll have all the yarn and kit you need for your sessions and extras to practise. And the kettle is always on! Then an evening by the campfire and a night glamping (in a gorgeous bell tent in the summer or our fab retro caravan in the winter). The retreat will be tailored to your experience and requirements from beginners to advanced techniques. Maybe you have tried to learn before, you are left-handed, you like learning in person, you want to take your crochet to the next level or you'd just like a lovely, crafty week away! It may include all or some of the following as well as other goals or ideas you might want to explore:
  • chain, single, double, treble crochet
  • increasing, decreasing
  • problem-solving
  • decorative stitches
  • working flat, in the round, in 3D
  • lace, mesh, corner to corner
  • intarsia
  • Afghan / Tunisian
All your materials and tools are included, 5 x 3h instructed sessions with Rachel, 5 x 3h Studio Sessions, 5 nights in a Bell Tent (Summer) / Glamping Caravan (Winter), as well as endless tea and coffee!
This workshop is a guaranteed one-to-one session so that I can tailor the workshop to your interests and needs as an individual. You can achieve so much this way. Develop skills to start a new business, take up a new hobby or craft for the joy of it… I can ensure the day progresses the way you want it to.
All courses, workshops and kits come with free support afterwards. Email me or arrange a video call. I love to see what my students and fellow crafters are up to and really enjoy answering questions or helping if I can. So any booking isn’t just for the day it’s the start of a crafting friendship!
To spread the cost of bookings why not consider paying with PayPal which allows you to pay in instalments. All the crafting fun without the stress.
What you'll get
  • Endless tea and coffee.
  • All the materials and tools needed to make various art pieces to take home.
  • 5 nights accommodation in a bell tent (summer) or retro caravan (winter).

I first learnt to crochet as a child and spent hours and hours making, sewing, knitting and learning every new technique possible in art, craft and design. After a degree in graphics and 16 years of experience teaching Textiles, Graphics, Art & Design and Design & Technology, I strongly believe in developing my own practice to be the best tutor I can be. I am continually inspired by my students of all ages, so it's definitely a two-way street!
