Discover the mindful art of crochet in this hands-on beginner course in Sydney. Crochet is one of the oldest crafts in the world and is enjoying a huge resurgence thanks to its relaxing, creative and practical appeal.
Often described as the new ‘mental yoga’, crochet’s rhythmic, repetitive motion can help reduce stress and anxiety while improving focus and wellbeing. Under the guidance of an experienced tutor, you’ll learn how to hold the hook and yarn, create a foundation chain and master essential stitches.
