Well that was popular! Did you want to do this course but missed out? Please message me via the Contact Me page and let me know! I’ll make sure you’re the first to hear about the next booking.

Due to popular demand, I will be running this lovely workshop for parents/grandparents/guardians and their children/grandchildren at the Riverhouse Barn Arts Centre, in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey!

This workshop is designed as an introduction to crochet. I’ve developed a small project that the parent and child (9+) can each make, learning together and includes a coffee/soft-drink and cake from our community cafe during our halftime break.

You’ll be making a small bowl which will teach you how to hold the hook and yarn, chain, make a single crochet (UK double crochet), how to slip stitch and fasten off. You’ll also have the opportunity to embellish your bowl to make it unique.

Please read the next section carefully before signing up. Parents/guardians are best suited to determine the suitability of the class for their child and hopefully an understanding of the way I teach my classes will help you make your decision!

Class Structure & Guidelines

• This workshop is aimed at students aged 9 and above with a participating adult (parent or guardian aged 18+).
• No previous crochet experience is required from either the parent or child.
• This is a 2 hour workshop.
• We will have a 15 minute break halfway through, in the cafe.
• For this workshop, I will teach a maximum of 6 students (3 adults & 3 children).
• We learn through demonstration, practical application and the use of our class notes & photo tutorials.
• I am not qualified to teach students with severe disabilities and learning difficulties.
• All students should understand that during the learning process we make mistakes and it takes repetition and a willingness to try again, in good faith, in order to progress.

What’s included?

As well as the tuition provided in class, the course also includes detailed class notes with photo tutorials, everything you need, including hook, yarn, needles & stitch markers. You’ll also receive a login so that you can access video tutorials of everything covered in class.

Additionally, the cost of the course includes a piece of cake and tea/coffee/soft drink for each student.

FAQ

Q: Why is the course 4 weeks long?
A : I have seen many day classes and classes that are a couple of hours long, promising to teach you to crochet. Of course there are some that can pick things up very quickly, but a key element of learning to crochet is muscle memory… this is very difficult to achieve in a short, one off class. In fact, a large percentage of my students had previously attended these kinds of classes and not quite managed to commit the techniques to memory. My immersive courses allow you to go home and practice what you’ve learnt in class and come back to me the following week for help with anything you’re unsure of. This 4 week structure really allows the skills to sink in and stick!

Q: I would like to attend your course but I am not able to make all the classes.
A : You can still get a lot out of the course, even if you have to skip some of the weeks, however,  Week 1 & Week 2 are mandatory. It’s very difficult for me to re-teach a whole missed class for one student and then fit in the content for the scheduled class. I have tried to do this in the past and ends up being unsatisfactory for the the student trying to catch up and also for the other students who didn’t miss a class. You will be sent class notes and videos (where applicable) for any classes missed and I’m happy to help via email/WhatsApp. The full cost of the course also applies, even if you can only make some of the classes.

Q: Is this class suitable for children (under 18s)?
A: This is not a straightforward answer, please click this link to read my full policy on teaching children.

Q: I do not need the starter kit as I have my own yarn and hooks.
A: After many years of teaching crochet to beginners, I have found that the hooks and yarn used make a massive difference to how easily the student picks up the technique and how much they enjoy the experience. Students that bring unsuitable equipment invariably end up frustrated so I have made the decision to provide and include all the materials in the cost of the course.

Q: I am a knitter. I’d like to crochet but I’m worried I won’t be able to.
A: Yes, I have come across this concern many times. There still seems to be a misconception that you either knit or crochet… of course you can do both! Often those with previous experience of knitting or other types of handicrafts can find picking up a new skill relatively easy.

Q: I use a wheelchair, is there wheelchair access to the studio?
A: Yes, there is a ramp into the studio. Please get in touch when you book and I will double check with the staff at the Riverhouse that everything is set up correctly for you.

Q: The dates of this course don’t suit me, will you be running another course and if so, when?
A: Yes, I run my beginners classes regularly. The best way to stay up to date with my courses is to sign up to my newsletter here: Mezzacraft Newsletter .

Q: What are your terms & conditions?
A: Please read our full terms and conditions here: Terms & Conditions

Important – Cancellation Policy

I have hesitated to implement this policy in the past, although it has always been in place as part of my terms & conditions. However, due to a high dropout rate for some of my recent courses, sometimes days before the course starts, I have been left in a situation where I am often not covering my costs and/or earning even a minimum wage. Therefore, I regret that I will now have to implement the policy so that I am able to continue teaching. Should you need to cancel, refunds for the course can only be given up to 14 days before the start of the course and are subject to an administration fee of £15. After this time, i.e. 2/4/24, I am unable to issue refunds as I have already committed to the hire of the venue and the purchase of all course materials and it doesn’t leave me enough time to find a replacement student to make the course financially viable. Of course, full refunds will be given in the event that the course is cancelled due to Riverhouse Barn or I cancelling the course. Thank you for your understanding.

During this 4 week course, you’ll learn some new stitches which focus on colour and texture.

Course Schedule

• Weeks 1 & 2 you’ll be learning a series of stitch sequences.
• Week 3 you’ll be planning your design.
• Week 4 you’ll be working on your design.

Do not panic if you don’t want to create your own design – I will also have a pattern you can follow and make if you’d prefer.

Skill Level

You must be confident with basic stitches. This is a great next step for students that have taken my beginners course, whilst also being fun project for my more advanced students.

Materials

You will receive 2x50g balls of cotton aran yarn and a 5mm hook included in the course fees. This is enough for practising the sample stitches – the amount of yarn you require for your final project will depend on your design (you’ll get help working out how much yarn you need for your final project.)

Dates

• Week 1 – Thursday 22nd February 10:00am-12:00pm
• Week 2 – Thursday 29th February 10:00am-12:00pm
• Week 3 – Thursday 7th March 10:00am-12:00pm

Venue

The Craft Cabin
Whichcraft Wools
17 The Broadway
Cheam, SM3 8BH

Online Resources

This particular in-person course does not have 100% video coverage for all techniques. It will include online resources for the stitches students need the most help with and I have provisioned in time to create one custom video per week which will be voted for by the students.

Therefore, I regret that I will now have to implement the policy otherwise I am no longer able to continue teaching. Should you need to cancel, refunds for the course can only be given up to 14 days before the start of the course and are subject to an administration fee of £15. After this time, i.e. 27/11/23, I am unable to issue refunds as I have already committed to the hire of the venue and the purchase of all course materials and it doesn’t leave me enough time to find a replacement student to make the course financially viable for me. Of course, full refunds will be given in the event that the course is cancelled due to Riverhouse Barn or I cancelling the course. Thank you for your understanding.

I will be running my ever popular Riverhouse Owl crochet course on Mondays from 12:30-2:30pm at the Riverhouse Barn Arts Centre in Walton-on-Thames!

This is a 4 week course (4 x 2 hour sessions) where you will learn the basic techniques of Amigurumi toy making by creating the Riverhouse Owl. I use it as a doorstop but it could also be used as a toy!

Please advise if you have an allergy to wool.

This course is for you if you :

• have taken my beginners course and are looking for your next project.
• have basic crochet skills and want to learn some new techniques.
• are a more advanced crochet student but fancy a fun project.

As well as my expert guidance and hands on practical work, the course includes detailed class notes with photo tutorials, videos AND everything you need, including hook, yarn and stuffing.
