Learn a variety of basic crochet skills and create your own potholder in this beginner workshop taught by guest instructor Carmen Gonzalez Castaneda. Yarn and tools will be provided, you are also welcome to bring your own. We recommend at least 4 oz. of size 4 cotton yarn and size G or H crochet hooks.
TIP: Feeling green? Try creating yarn from recycled t-shirts ahead of the class. You will need yarn from approximately 2 adult-sized shirts to complete the potholder project.
For ages 16+
