Members should enjoy hands-on activities, be interested in creative projects, and have a willingness to learn and share with others. This will be a relaxed, social settings where we explore the art of crochet together.
The Crochet Club is a welcoming, child-led space where members can relax, chat, and explore the art of crochet together. Members can work on individual projects or collaborate on group pieces, while learning new stitches, sharing tips, and developing their skills at their own pace. Each session offers guidance on a stitch of the day, but members are encouraged to work freely, creating a warm and supportive community for all skill levels.
Through weekly meetings, members will build confidence in crochet techniques and terminology by learning new stitches each session. They will develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and focus as they work on individual or group projects. The club also encourages creativity and problem-solving as members experiment with different patterns and designs. Additionally, members will engage in social interaction, teamwork, and collaboration in a relaxed, supportive community, experiencing the joy of creating something unique and fostering a sense of accomplishment and self-expression.
