Learn to make your own soft, chunky black blanket! This class is a fun, gentle introduction to the cozy world of crochet. Students will choose their preferred method:
- Option A: Finger Power! Use only your hands and fingers to create big, easy loops (no hook needed!). This is a great starting point for developing fine motor skills and is the fastest way to see results!
- Option B: Hook Helper! Use a large plastic crochet hook to guide the yarn, learning the basic chain and single crochet stitches.
You'll leave with the start of a chunky blanket and the skills to keep creating!
