Have you ever wanted to learn to crochet?
This craft skill has been keeping grannies busy since the 11th century. One thousand years later, crochet has become the thing to do, even before you get into your dotage.
Join us at the Leopold Library for this beginner crochet class. You will learn a basic chain stitch and build on that with a double and treble stitch to make a dishcloth. Finally you will learn how to make the iconic grannie square.
Classes start Thursday 18 April, 3:30pm to 4:30pm. They continue each fortnight until Thursday 27 June - six in total.
Hooks and wool will be supplied.
