Tips, Tricks & Techniques
This workshop is for intermediate crocheters who want to expand their horizons. Each week I will introduce a new stitch or technique. Participants are then free to work on this new skill, or to request individual help with any of their own projects they might like to bring in.

And it looks like there’ll be a second beginner class starting in February. More on that, when I have the details.

My LYS just sent me a ravmail asking about a second class. Will have to think about a format. I have something in mind, but have to sit down and actually map out the details. Can’t start before mid January, though, because I’m expecting the Mama over Christmas and New Year’s.

Last day of my first beginner’s crochet class, and the ladies were clamoring for more, so it can’t have been too bad. I’m pleased as punch, but don’t know what the plans of my LYS are. We’ll see. Good to know though that I’d already have a few participants for an intermediate class.

So, gave my first crochet class today. I was a bit nervous, but it went ok, I think. Everyone assured me they were ok with the pace and what they had learned in their first two hours, so my time estimate was pretty spot on. Though I confess to having had the next bit prepared just in case they’d all whizz through the first part. Well, less preparation for next week.

The tiger picked me up afterwards. We were going to check out the Italian on the corner, but it was still closed, so we had dinner in a diner across the road instead. Nothing to write home about. The restaurant was almost empty, the food juuuust ok. And the view of a rain-drenched late October parking lot didn’t significantly improve the experience.

My LYS had been looking for a teacher and asked me if I can give classes. Exciting stuff that. Now I have to plan a six-weeks course.
