In this fun class, students will learn about types and sizes of crochet hooks and yarn, and how to match them. They’ll learn how to make a slipknot, a chain stitch, a single crochet stitch, a double crochet stitch, a magic loop, and finally how to put it all together into a granny square.

Supplies provided to students will include crochet hooks and yarn.

About the instructor, Kahle Gorzelsky: Kahle has been doing fiber craft for over two decades; mostly knitting, crocheting, and a little bit of spinning. Crochet was the hardest for them to learn, but once they figured out a few simple stitches and shapes like Granny Squares, nothing could stop them!
