THIS CLASS IS FULL.  DUE TO THE POPULARITY OF THESE CLASSES, WE’RE OFFERING ANOTHER ON  THURSDAY, AUGUST 17 (5:30-7:30).   HOPE YOU CAN JOIN US.  REGISTER HERE

This class is a continuation of the previous “Learn to Crochet” workshop where students learned the basic chain stitch.  This workshop will take those students one step further by teaching them how to make beautiful, fun and useful items.  New stitches will be introduced as the student progresses.

This class is also appropriate for those new to the craft.  You’ll  learn the basics of crochet that will enable you to create a variety of items in just a few steps. Demonstrations will be given in the beginning of the class then be followed by individual assistance.

There will be a selection of projects to choose from and help whenever needed.  Materials will be provided and given to you at the end of the class for you to begin creating at home.  A fun assortment of beverages will be provided to easily aid any frustration along the way;)

SUPPLY LIST:  All supplies will be provided by RAC

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR: 

Hello, My name is Michelle Bjerke and I am excited to be teaching Stitch and Sip. I am currently studying at the University of Connecticut while spending my breaks off school working as a gallery assistant as well as teacher here at 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 here 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.
