    Anonymous review on 7/3/2023
    Instructor was awesome and very hands on. We learned one basic knot. Didn’t care for picture illustrations, especially if you don’t know what you are doing. But, realistically this one day 2 hours is not enough. Thank goodness it was only myself and one other student. This needs to be taught in a series of classes. This really was a waste of money and time.

    Way too many people in this type of class. I don’t think anyone left with the completed project and the only ones close had a knitting background. Also just put the materials charge in the class charge.

    This course was awesome. The instructor was amazing and very patient. I plan to take the Intro II class to keep learning how to crochet.

    The instructor was knowledgeable and patient. I was able to get examples, practice and encouragement. I look forward to another class, I would like to know how to read crochet patterns or perhaps learn how to make some other items.
