Granny Squares
Date: Saturday October 26, 10:00am - 12:00pm
Looking to build a new skill with your crochet? In this two hour class, Robbie will walk you through the ever classic Granny Square! Taught to him by his own grandmother at the age of 5, it’s the first thing he ever learnt to make, and she really knew all the tricks! You’ll learn an invisible start to working in the round, how to shape your square, changing colours the easy way, and how to seam them quickly. You’ll also get tips for interesting ways to use these squares to make various fun and colourful projects!
Our Group classes are suitable for ages 16 and up. For children under the age of 16, please contact the shop to book a private lesson on one of our class days.
