Learn to Crochet or Knit $40 (Four~2 hour classes)
This class is 4 sessions. You will not learn to Crochet or Knit in one 2 hour class. It is a process and this 4 week/ 8 hour class just starts you on your journey and gives you the basics of the craft. When you sign up for the class you’re signing up for a 4 week class program. You must complete your classes in a 6 week period. You are responsible to bring your materials to class, the materials you need for your class are listed below. There will be homework and if you’d like to get the most out of your class you’ll need to complete it. If you do not do your homework and fall behind you will be helped after the rest of the class has started on the next lesson. If you need help with finding your materials please feel free to contact the instructor, Allena at ullena@yahoo.com. Also, you are required to contact Allena directly by 12 noon on the day of class if you are not going to make it to class. If you do not call, your class cannot be made up. She takes "roll call" to make sure everyone gets their four classes. Classes cannot be carried over from months prior.
