This class is an opportunity to crochet with a coach–where people can work in a small group and work on whichever project they choose. We can tackle new stitches, identify mistakes and correct them, and add to your skills in an informal and fun way! Learning to read patterns took years for me, and I’m still learning. I would love to have the opportunity to take some of the mystery and fear out of this process for people! Bring a pattern that you’re struggling with, and we will translate it together. This is a class for everyone! Please call in advance to reserve your spot. Please call 603-373-0151 to reserve your seat.
