I’m back from vacation, and getting things back online and up to date. All class info is up to date and bookable. I’m still working on updating my Etsy shop – you can still buy and download knitting and crochet patterns, but I’ve not reactivated hooks yet.
I’m excited to share also that I will be at the Schaffhausen wool fest on 27th October! More info here. I’ll keep you posted on what I will be taking to the show closer to the time!
Don’t forget to check out and subscribe to my YouTube channel for crochet. In the beginning I will be publishing content there for beginner crocheters learning to crochet. I’ll be adding to it over time and I hope to make it a great resource for all my learners. https://www.youtube.com/@craftroomcrochet
