Narberth, PA Crocheting Lessons

I have been crocheting for some time now, and have done many different types of projects. I also sell scarves/hats online. I can help you with the basics of crochet to get you started on your crocheting adventures.

I've been teaching Crocheting since I was a teenager. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to crochet all kinds of beautiful stuff. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

I've been teaching crochet for 3 years and my students have gone on to understanding, editing and creating their own crochet patterns. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to complete a simple project and as time goes on you'll be able to edit a pattern. I specialize in pattern alteration and have hooks and yarn to practice with for your first 3 lessons. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

Currently a pattern designer for Red Heart Yarns, I've been teaching knitting and crochet professionally for six years. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to crochet simple patterns but as time goes on you'll be able to make whatever wonderful project you can dream up, from sweaters to stuffed animals. I typically use my own teaching materials supplemented by some handouts from the Craft Yarn Council. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

What would you like to learn? Basic stitching or specific techniques? Learn how to use Ravelry. Get help with a current project. Are you left-handed? Bonus! I teach righty or lefty as needed.

Make a list of “Things I Want to Work On” and we can put together a great lesson plan and schedule. Here are some skills and techniques to think about to get your list started. Ask me about anything else, if you don’t see it here:

Stitches and Techniques –
• Basic or advanced stitches
• Increases and decreases
• How to read charts
• Hyperbolic crochet
• Crochet in the round
• Tunisian crochet (Afghan stitch)
• Bead crochet to embellish projects or make jewelry

Math Made Easy -
• Reading the Yarn Ball Band for yarn weights and hook sizes
• Gauge and substituting yarn
• Tackle your niggly math questions

I've been teaching Crocheting for 10 years and my students have gone on to make things as small as bracelets to something as unique as jumping rope lol. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to make a pencil pouch and as time goes on you'll be able to make your own blankets. I specialize in making gift like ornaments to winter apparel, typically use patterns from books and online, and have the 22 different crochet hooks and yarn available for your lessons. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

New students are taught how to hold the hook and yarn, shown different crochet materials, how to read yarn labels, and create and maintain tension. Starting chains, stitch height and the importance of stitch count are also taught. Students will learn a variety of stitches including the slip stitch, single, half double, double, treble, "X" stitch, front-and back-post stitches, and how to combine them for interest and texture. They will be proud to show off their first project!

I am passionate about teaching the humble American craft of Crocheted Rag Rugs!
I have been teaching for close to a decade and have taught over a hundred students how to create their own rugs using a crochet hook, sharp fabric scissors, fabric and their hands! In a world where we are all connected to screens and keyboards, creating a functional work of art with your hands is incredibly satisfying and purposeful.
My workshops are very popular in the suburbs of Philadelphia and fill very quickly. I limit my workshops to six students to ensure maximum hands-on teaching. I can teach in your home or mine. My workshops are a great way to gather close friends, family members, work friends, mom/daughter time.
You will leave my workshop having begun your rug and will leave with all the knowledge you need to finish it at home.
My beginning workshop is Crocheting an Oval Rag Rug! Once you master this shape, I offer workshops in Circular Rugs, Square Rugs, Rectangular Rugs, Bands Of Color ...

I have been crocheting since I was 6. I currently co-own a small craft business and attend craft fairs. I've decided to try and teach my craft so people can learn how therapeutic it can be!
