Granny Square Club - A 4 week course!

  • Lark Design Make Studio, Cardiff (map)

A fab new crochet club!

This workshop is suitable who have recently learnt to crochet or are looking for something new to try, the course will be accompanied by lots of helpful print outs and videos, a friendly & supportive Facebook group and lots of support from our addicted to granny square making tutors - Sarah & Gemma

You can use any yarn you may have - it’s a great stash buster - you can also buy yarn from us - 4 balls of yarn at £8 is enough to make 33 granny squares! You can also buy them in our shop anytime. We will provide yarn and hooks at the early sessions for you to practice the techniques.

You will be given a storage bag, a blocking pad and pack of blocking pins

You’ll also be able to complete some of your projects with materials we have in the studio e.g zips, felt for lining etc…

There’ll also be refreshments served during every session

This course is also a great introduction to reading written and pictogram patterns.
