Amigurumi Craftalong Class

  • 21 W. Strand St. Kingston US (map)

One Thursday evening in March

What’s a craftalong class you say? Traditionally, craftalongs are social gatherings focused on a shared project and they are not a class. Classes are focused (often) on learning new techniques, and at Yarn Farm they tend to be very small like 4-6 people for special attention.

We’re launching a new experience, a craftalong class! This is a social gathering where you will get instruction and help with new techniques and we’ll all kick off a project together.

In our March Amigurumi craftalong class we’ll all start to work on a sweet crochet kit. Amigurumi is the Japanese art of crocheting (typically, but they can also be knit) small, cute, stuffed creatures. Jocelyn will explain the overall steps to following the amigurumi pattern, coach you through starting with a magic ring (often the trickiest part), and give you tips for success!

You must already have basic crochet skills:

  • Comfort holding and managing yarn as you crochet

  • Slip knot, chain stitch and single crochet

This craftalong class will not teach the above skills but rather will build on them.

Due to the customary time needed to crochet an amigurumi kit, you will not finish your new friend during the duration of this class. The class is designed to get you started and set up for success. It is geared toward capable crocheters who haven’t yet tried to make amigurumi and/or follow a pattern.

Course fee of $40 includes your choice of amigurumi kit (value $15).

Teacher: Jocelyn Songco

Minimum 2 people to confirm the craftalong class, maximum of 8 students total. If we don’t reach the minimum of two students by 3 days before the date of the first class we’ll refund your purchase in full. Read and understand our Class Policies here.
