Learn To Crochet!


Crochet Heart Class
Learn to crochet by making hearts for Valentine's Day. These hearts are a great intro to crochet and can be used for all sorts of fun projects. Scrapbooking, Purses, Belts & Scarves are just a few examples of what you can make with these cute hearts.
This is a wonderful way to start crocheting.
All ages are welcome. Experienced crocheter's who just want a little inspiration are also welcome! Bring your favorite hooks and yarn or use mine if you don't have any yet.
Cost for this class is $15.00

Crochet Amigurumi Class
Come learn how to make Amigurumi (cute little crochet stuffed animals) to give to your Valentine.
These animals are as easy as they are cute and once you learn a few simple tricks you'll have the skills you need to make all the Amigurumi you ever wanted.
This class is for all ages and best for people who already have some basic knowledge of crochet. Bring a skein of your favorite comfort yarn and a hook. A large eye needle and threader are also useful. If you have some favorite buttons or safety eyes you can also bring those. I will have extras on hand though.
