Questions about Amigurumi Beginner
Do the four lessons have to be weekly?
Weekly is ideal — it gives you time to practise between sessions. If life gets busy, lessons can be spaced out a little more; just book each week's time to suit you.
What character will I make?
Your choice. I can give you a beginner-friendly pattern, or you can bring one you've bought. We pick it together in week one, so it's something you'll love and can realistically finish in four weeks.
Do I need to know single crochet already?
No. Week one starts from the magic ring and single crochet. If you're brand new to crochet, that's fine — we simply spend a little longer on foundations.
