Learn to Crochet

Join us for this fun, work at your own pace, in person class taught in our Auckland dye studio. Choose from a 20 gram skein of hand dyed DK Merino and watch as we wind it into a yarn cake for you! Your yarn is included along with 2 hours of tuition. A crochet hook is optional, you can bring your own if you prefer.

While you can learn a lot from online courses, there's just no substitution for hands on guidance in the moment... with this in mind we will cover:

your tools

holding your yarn

making a chain

single crochet

half double crochet

double crochet

sewing in your yarn tail

We may even have some chats about patterns and terminology, working with colour, and getting to know yarns fibres.

We try our best to make our photos as accurate as possible but every screen displays colour slightly differently, so we cannot guarantee complete accuracy.  Hand-dyed yarns vary from one batch to the next so there will always be some variation between the photo and each individual skein. 

Part of the hand dyed allure is each skein's individuality. This gives final objects depth and nuance. With this in mind we recommend alternating skeins (every other row in flat knitting and every row in circular knitting) on larger projects creating a more cohesive blend.
