How to Crochet Granny Squares

Saturday 25th October, 10.30 – 3.30

A workshop perfect for beginners to crochet, those who have tried to crochet, but struggled to get started, or even those who have done a little crochet but want to master making granny squares. In this class, you will learn how to create a traditional granny square worked in the round using basic UK crochet stitches. You will also explore two common techniques for joining granny squares and complete a simple using four squares to create a small glasses case. By the end of this class, you should feel confident working in the round, changing colours between rounds, and making and joining granny squares. Throughout this document we will use standard UK crochet terminology.

Materials:

We will supply the yarn, crochet hooks, tape measures, scissors and sewing needles for you to use during the class. If you wish to bring your own tools that’s also fine. A pen or pencil would also be useful and a notebook if you wish to make notes. A handout will also be provided covering the techniques included in the class.
