This event will be half social chats with a bunch of like-minded queer people and half fun, educational and interactive workshop. It’s part of a series of queer socials happening at the Victorian Pride Centre for Pride Month in June.

 

Crochet is not just for your grandma! Once you learn the art of crochet there are so many projects you can put your skills to – crop tops, teapot covers, dolls and beautiful blankets! And yes, granny squares, too.

Come and learn the art of crochet via Pride Chickens! We’ll all make a chick on whatever colours you’d like.

 

All the materials will be provided – just come and have a cute time!

 

What will we cover?

• How to hold your crochet hook and how to tie a slip knot
• Learn how to ‘chain’ – the basis of all crochet projects
• The single crochet stitch
• increasing and decreasing

This class is suitable for absolute beginners or anyone returning to crocheting wanting a refresher.
