On Saturday evening, we shall all meet up at the local pub, where we can enjoy a glass of wine or a G&T and have something to eat whilst discussing all things woolly! A great excuse to crochet all weekend!

All courses are taught by the highly talented Ali Campbell, who has taught hundreds if not thousands of people to crochet in both Surrey & Dorset. She has also designed and written patterns for both UK & US books and magazines and is highly sought after for her colourful works of crochet art.
