SUMMARY:HOLIDAY WORKSHOP: Hooked on Crochet
DESCRIPTION:The Hooked on Crochet workshop is one of our popular holiday workshops. You may have noticed that crochet and granny squares are right on trend! In this beginner friendly workshop\, tweens and teens will learn how to make colourful granny squares. Once they’ve mastered their skills\, they can then assemble them into a phone or notebook sleeve. This is an easy project to get started and participants will go home with the skills to carry on and finish the project! \nOnce the technique is learnt (it can take some time and practise) then anything is possible. Portia will guide your children every step of the way so they leave the workshops with more wool\, a hook and the enthusiasm to continue. \nChildren will take home a step-by-step workbook from the Hooked on Crochet workshop\, all included in the fee. \nCheck the Pinterest Inspo from UXBRIDGE \nSuitable for ages 10+ \n  \nPlease note there is NO refund or a transfer if you cancel less than 7 days in advance or once the class/workshop has started.
