Crochet II - V - Winter 2025

*This class fulfills the Non-Knitting Elective Requirement for WEKP.

Once you have mastered the basic stitches of crochet, you will want to expand your knowledge of this wonderful and relaxing craft. In this class we will concentrate on working motifs in the round (including granny squares), reading and understanding patterns, crocheted ribbing, shaping (increasing and decreasing), post stitches, finishing and gauge. We will make several projects during our 6 weeks and the majority of the work will be done outside of class, so be prepared for at least 30 minutes of homework per day.

You will receive the Zoom link 1-2 business days before the virtual class.
