Learning to crochet can easily become a fun & relaxing addiction, so it helps that it is an inexpensive craft to learn. My course is designed for those with no experience, little experience, or for those who may need a refresher of the basics of crochet. Because of this, I have designedthorough video content of the techniques you will be learning to help you master that technique or stitch creation. I have included handouts to remind you of the details shared in the video lectures so you can work offline with a go to resource. You will find external links to many of the vendors I have used to find supplies as well as to any of their FREE patterns, “How To” instructional videos/illustrations and more. I also make available, full video tutorial content of the actual crochet projects you will be working on. By using the pause feature, you will have the ability to take as long as you need to in order to finish each project and complete the course. My goal is to see you through this course successfully with little to no guess work about what you are learning. I will be with you every step of the way.
When you are done, you should be able to refer to ANY beginner tutorials available and successfully create or recreate any pattern(s) being taught. That is, IF the instructors are thorough in explaining the process to you. However, you should be able to recognize by sightwhat they are doing even if they should fail to mention a detail or two :). You should also be able to recognize most of the basic abbreviations used in pattern(s) so that you can follow along to completion.
In the beginning, take your time enjoy it and master it. Speed will come later. Remember, patience leads to rewarding outcomes. Once you become confident with the terminology, in using the tools and working with the yarn, you will be creating your own designs to keep for yourself, or to share with your family and friends.
Enjoy the journey! See you in class.
