Beginner Crochet

This meetup is for anyone who is just starting out with crochet, learning the basics, or looking for a relaxed space to hone their skills alongside others. Experienced crocheters are welcome to join, but please note that the core focus of this meetup is supporting beginners!

Meetup Format

***"Office Hours" / Study Hall Style: **This is an informal style help session rather than a structured step-by-step lecture. Bring whatever project you are working on, ask questions, get help, or just crochet together!

What to Bring

** *Bring your own supplies: *Please bring your own hooks, yarn, and materials. Crochet kits are a great way to start if you don't have individual supplies yet.
Where to buy: Beginner crochet kits (10–30) are available at Barnes & Noble. You can also find yarn, hooks, and starter kits at local craft stores (like Joann or Michael's) or online.
*** Community Supplies: A very limited amount of spare yarn and extra tools may be available, as I have spare material. If you’re a seasoned crocheter with surplus materials or spare hooks you'd like to share or swap, feel free to bring them along!

Beginner-Friendly Free Project Ideas to Try
If you don't have a project in mind yet, here are some simple patterns you can try, and we can help you work through:

• 3D Ball / Amigurumi Base
  *** Coaster or Washcloth**
  ** Granny Square*

Whether you're holding a hook for the very first time or looking for a cozy space to practice, we'd love to have you!
