Crochet Class



today I was invited to give a crochet class to four wonderful ladies. they were so enthusiastic, so motivated, and so good at it, the afternoon flew by in a second! I prepared basic stitch swatches of single, double and half double crochet as examples. they each got a little write up of the stitches and the crochet heart pattern, with a finished heart I made for them. I took some of my favorite books with interesting projects, some examples of my crochet work and different types of yarn and hooks. we made plans to meet up again soon, and I can't wait to go on with granny squares and round shaped coasters and other items!

no such thing as sharing a craft, a passion and a wonderful afternoon in good company ~ thank  you ladies

    How wonderful. I'm always a little nervous of the idea of teaching someone else, but it sounds like you had a fabulous experience.
