Granny Squares 101: Crochet for Beginners

Learn about crocheting at Granny Squares 101: Crochet for Beginners on Sunday, Sept. 14 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in The Studio.

Led by fiber artist Billie Theide, students will learn the basics of crochet, create basic stitches, change colors, read work, fix mistakes and bind off.

Each student will leave with at least one uniquely designed crocheted “granny square” that can serve as a start for a bigger blanket, scarf, bag, and more!

$95/person (Ages 13+; 13-17-year-olds must be accompanied by an adult, who does not need to register.) Register at https://allerton.illinois.edu/events/granny-squares-2/. Registration will close Sept. 11 or when capacity is reached. All sales are final.
