Join us for a two-session beginners crochet program for teens and adults! We will create a Cauldron Coaster Set. You must attend all dates to learn how to create a finished product.  The two Dates are October 8th and October 15th. 

Introductory Beginner is new to the craft, can't read a pattern, knows no stitches, no prior experience.

Beginner would have some prior experience but not much, probably knows how to chain and maybe one other stitch. Probably doesnt know how to read a pattern or what stitches are called. 

Advanced Beginner knows a few of the very basic stitches, knows what those stitches are called, and should have an idea of how to read a pattern. 

Intermediate is comfortable learning more advanced stitches with instructions, knows how to read a pattern, and knows all basic stitches/terms

Advanced is someone who can read patterns/charts, knows basic stitches and terms as well as the more complicated ones

The two Dates are October 8th and October 15th. 

**About the Presenter:** Doll is a stay-at-home mother of two, one of whom she homeschools. She has a cat, two dogs, and a pet Canadian (which normal people refer to as a husband). Originally from Maine, Doll spent several years in Canada before settling in Pennsylvania. She is an avid reader, crafter, and gamer, always making sure to have a project with her while on the go. Doll learned to crochet from her mother at 10, starting with chains and slip stitches. She picked up the craft again during the COVID-19 pandemic and discovered that the repetitive nature of crocheting helps her de-stress. Since then, crocheting has become an integral part of her everyday life, and she wants to share that joy with you!
