Beginner Crochet: Crochet Your First Infinity Scarf (Cambridge)

Beginner Crochet: Crochet Your First Infinity Scarf

Want to learn how to crochet? This is the perfect class for beginners to try out a new skill with hands-on guidance! Learn how to crochet a basic infinity scarf in a chunky, soft yarn for the coming fall and winter.

You’ll Learn:
How to begin your project
How to do a chain stitch
How to do a single crochet stitch
How to do a single crochet stitch in the back loop only
How to finish your project and weave in ends
How to do the whip stitch

We’ll also discuss how to read a pattern, basic garment care, different types of crochet hooks and their uses, different types of yarn and how to pick yarn for a project, and how to fix mistakes.

All materials are provided for this class. All you need to bring is yourself and your curiosity. We can’t wait to crochet with you!

Note: You can adjust the length of the scarf by how much crocheting you want to do. We will teach all the basics of starting, middle and ending of the stitches, but if you want to do a super long scarf, or are new to crochet, you will need to finish it at home. The same techniques we teach can be applied to a cowl (shorter scarf that can probably be finished during class) and an infinity scarf (longer scarf).

How do I book for a workshop?

The best way to book for a workshop is through our website.  You can look at the schedule in calendar view or look at the list of workshop and see what's available for it.   We close sign up 24 hours prior to the workshop, so be sure to book ahead!

Can I bring a guest to a workshop?

If you have a last minute addition to your group, please call the store to see if there is enough seating or materials available.  If so, you can pay for their ticket upon arrival at the store.  Last minute accommodations are up to the discretion of the store staff and host.  We recommend booking your tickets at least 24 hour in advance.

All workshop attendees need to have their own ticket.  However, an adult caretaker can accompany a minor younger than 18 years old free of charge (one adult per minor please).  Check your workshop details for minimum age requirements to ensure that the workshop is appropriate for the minor.  

Can I take my project home?

In most workshops, you will complete the project and be able to take it home.  Some projects require curing or drying time and may need to stay at the store until ready.  Please check your workshop description for details.

What should I do if I need to reschedule my workshop?

We can refund or reschedule your workshop as long as you let us know at least 24 hours prior to the workshop.  Please see our Refund Policy here for more details.

What should I do if I'm running late for my workshop?

We understand that traffic and emergencies happen and hope that you can make it to your workshop on time.  If you arrive late, we will do our best to catch you up on the content and steps covered for the workshop, but we cannot guarantee that your host is able to stay beyond the regularly scheduled workshop duration.  If you cannot make it to your workshop, you can transfer your ticket to another person and they can attend in your place.  Unfortunately we do not offer refunds or reschedules for no shows.  Please see our Refund Policy here for more details.

Can I bring my dog?

We regularly have doggy visitors and well-behaved pups that get along with other humans and dogs are welcome!  Some workshops can be messy and things may fall on the floor.  Other workshops may use materials that are sticky or otherwise hazardous.  We are not responsible if your dog ingests something they shouldn't.
