Adult and Child Crochet Workshop

About Adult and Child Crochet Workshop

This workshop is a great way for kids to get started with a creative and mindful hobby, crocheting!

Each ticket reserves a space for an adult and child to come together to learn to crochet, with the option of adding a space for a second child to accompany you (with maximum of 2 children per adult). Together you will learn how to crochet, and support each other to master the craft once you take it home.

In this class we will start from the very beginning and learn some useful crochet stitches that allow you to crochet some beautiful projects. We'll start in the workshop by making a colourful friendship bracelet!

All materials are provided and you will each leave with your own hook to keep on using what you have learnt to crochet at home.

This workshop is suitable for children aged 8+.
