If you’ve ever searched for this class and even looked at the description of this lesson, then you’ve probably come across a crochet pattern filled with many symbols that seem complicated, yet they produce an absolutely stunning piece. And maybe you’ve thought that these patterns are only used by professionals who have spent years mastering this craft...

But what if I told you a secret? 👀
You don’t need to be a crochet expert to learn how to read a pattern, it’s quite the opposite! Once you learn to read a pattern, it actually opens the door for you to become more professional and develop your skills!

✅ Learn the basic symbols for each stitch.
✅ Learn how to read a pattern row by row.
✅ Master how to follow the reading direction correctly.
✅ Understand the difference between a written and a charted pattern.

Have you ever heard of macrame?
Macrame is a knotting technique that can be used to create many great projects from cotton yarn.

In this course I'll show you online how to get started and how to use the basic knots very quickly. You can make so many projects using these knots: wall hangings, keychains, wall mirrors, hanging baskets...

Just a nice hobby now that you have to spend a lot of time indoors.

If you are curious or just don't feel like watching YouTube tutorials but want to learn macrame from a person, then let me know!
See you soon 😊

Get ready for creativity, giggles, and a whole lot of colorful mess! I’m starting a super fun arts & crafts class just for kids where imagination runs wild and every project feels like an adventure. We’ll paint, glue, cut, sprinkle glitter, and turn everyday ideas into awesome creations kids will be excited to show off.

This class is all about exploring, trying new things, building confidence, and having FUN while we create. No pressure to be “perfect,” just a welcoming space where little artists can express themselves, make friends, and leave with big smiles (and maybe a little paint on their sleeves 🤭).
