So you have discovered that crocheting is an awesome hobby! It is gratifying, with its quick-to-make projects, and it is incredibly portable! It’s perfect for always having a project on the go.
Crochet Ability: To be successful in this Intermediate class, you will need to be proficient with the following crochet stitches: chain stitch, slip stitch, single crochet, and double crochet. Please know that we will challenge ourselves and learn front and back post stitches and treble crochet as well.
Material needed: Materials will be determined by you. If you need a suggestion, use Lion Brand Pound of Love; other brands are Red Heart Super Saver, Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft or Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice. The amounts will depend on what you want to make. A hook is needed; most of these yarns require a (J) hook. Sometimes we crochet loose or tight, so bring one needle larger (K) for tight crocheters and one needle small for loose workers (I). The instructor will supply a pattern for the first class.
Materials required: Yarn; I, J, K crochet hooks; regular scissors or embroidery scissors; and plastic/steel sewing needle for weaving in ends.
About the instructor: Margaret Rucci is a first generation Italian/American who learned to sew, knit, crochet, cook and all that good stuff from her maternal grandmother, her Nonna and her mom. She teaches hand stitching to high school students during the day and loves teaching and sharing her crafty passions by night.
