Led by fiber artist Billie Theide, students will learn the basics of crochet, how to chain, create basic stitches, change colors, read work, fix mistakes and bind off; and join squares to create dishcloths, coasters, bags, scarves, pullovers and throws.
Each student will leave with at least one uniquely designed crocheted “granny square”
that can serve as a start for a bigger blanket, scarf, bag, and more!
