Description
Give your Crocs a unique twist with colorful granny squares! This hands-on workshop is perfect for those with some crochet experience and will guide you through selecting yarn and materials, mastering techniques like the magic loop and double crochet, and learning to read crochet patterns.
By the end of the session, you’ll have your own set of handmade granny square Croc covers and patterns to use for future projects.
All materials are included in the workshop fee, and complimentary drinks and snacks will be provided to keep the creativity flowing. Please note, you must provide your own crocs.
Note: A basic understanding of crochet is recommended for this workshop. If you’re new to crochet, we encourage you to take our beginner-friendly Crochet Shoelace Workshop first. This event is suitable for ages 12+.
