Class Description:
Crochet is having a moment... and this is your sign to finally learn.
Join artist, educator, and lifelong yarn lover Risa for a beginner-friendly introduction to crochet. You’ll learn the stitches and techniques you actually need to get started, then put them to work making your own crocheted crossbody bag.
Never picked up a crochet hook? Perfect. This class is designed for complete beginners, with plenty of hands-on help and absolutely no expectation that you already know what you’re doing.
You’ll leave with your bag in progress, the skills to finish it at home, and access to tutorials and resources so you can keep going long after the workshop ends.
All materials are included. Just show up and start stitching.
Space is intentionally limited so everyone gets plenty of individual help.
Level: All levels welcome
