Crochet 101: Beginning (or Refresher) Crochet
Crochet has gotten more and more popular in recent years - I've been dabbling in it quite a bit myself lately. This is a great class to come to if:
- You have no experience at all; this is the place to start.
- You're a knitter; crochet is a fun change of pace (and its a quick pace). It's also really nice for borders and embellishments for your knitted projects.
- You crocheted in the past but want to brush up your rusty skills.
- You currently crochet, but you're self-taught, and you're not sure if you're doing things correctly.
We'll cover the basics of crochet. You'll learn how to chain, how to single and double crochet as well as some other skills. We're planing more crochet classes, so this is the place to get started. Yarn and hook will be provided.
When: Wednesday evenings, November 9 - 16th (2 weeks)
Time: 6:00 - 8:00
Instructor: Michelle
Cost: $25 (includes yarn and crochet hook)

Two at a Time Toe Up Socks - NEW!
Have you heard of Second Sock Syndrome? It's an affliction many of us come down with immediately after finishing a hand knit sock. The main symptom is a total lack of desire to knit its mate. Many knitters have succumbed to SSS and have piles of single socks to show for it. But there is a cure: knitting two identical socks at the same time. There is hope; come and learn.
When: Saturday afternoons, November 5th - 19th (3 weeks)
Time: 1:00 - 3:00
Instructor: Tami
Cost: $30 plus materials
Materials: 100 grams of sock yarn, two pairs of circular needles, size 1 - 2. The book Knitting More Circles Around Socks is helpful and is available for purchase, but it's not required.
Skills needed: basic knitting skills including increasing and decreasing. You'll be knitting using fairly fine yarn and small needles but if you prefer to learn using a heavier weight yarn such as worsted and larger needles, that's an option.
