This class is a beginner crochet course that will teach you the basic stitches you’ll need to create anything you like with some yarn and a hook. Demonstrations will be given in the beginning of the class and will be followed by individual assistance. We will start the class with a project that is easy to grasp and fun to do. Then depending on the pace of the class we can dive into other fun things like creating your favorite animal. Materials will be provided and given to you at the end of the class for you to begin creating at home. This class is perfect for new and returning students.
SUPPLIES: All supplies will be provided by RAC
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Hello, My name is Michelle Bjerke and I am excited to be teaching Crochet for Kids. I am currently studying at the University of Connecticut while spending my summer break working as a gallery assistant and teacher at the Rowayton Arts Center. I’ve been an avid crocheter since I was 8 and actually began assisting the after school program that taught me at the qualified age of 12 so lets hope I am a proficient instructor by now. Since then I’ve shown textile work at my school and sold my products at RAC and other places. I am excited to get crocheting with all of you and I hope you walk out of this class with a new skill.
