Open Crochet at Sew What

• Wednesday, January 14, 2026, 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM

Crochet is a traditional fiber art that can be used to make many things including: decorative items, blankets, hats, accessories, clothing, and amiguri - cute little animal figures. Crochet is a technique that cannot be done by any machine therefore youth will be empowered to create in this truly human-based method. Crocheting engages a 4-Hers Head and Hands. They will learn to plan their project, gather materials, learn the needed skills, execute their plan, troubleshoot problems, and display their success.

Meeting Time: Second Wednesday of the Month 5:30-7:00 pm

Meeting Place: Sew What - 25 Seminary St. Suite 3
