Crocheting Basics

Garrett College Continuing Education and Workforce Development is offering a course, Crocheting Basics, at the College’s Southern Outreach Center (the Armory) in Oakland. The course is scheduled to begin on Tuesdays, January 31 to February 28, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Every great work begins with a single slip knot. You'll start there and move on to the basics of crocheting through chain and single crochet, turning and making rows and finishing off a simple wash cloth. Participants move on to half double crochet, double crochet and slip stitch, while we explore how yarn weights and hook sizes bring variety to your projects. It's just the way you put them together that makes the difference. All supplies included. Participants can enjoy a supportive, relaxed atmosphere with class instructor, Katherine Lee.
