Oh So Pretty And Clever reviews
“Being passionate about what you do brings out the best possible result.”
Emma Pickering, Crochet Instructor, Oh So Pretty And Clever
Many of you may have considered learning how to crochet before, but been daunted by the prospect. Fear not!
Some of you may have picked up a hook and yarn and given it a go with the best of intentions, and subsequently ended up throwing said hook and yarn across the room before declaring “it’s impossible, I don’t have the patience or the coordination for it!” I mean this in the nicest possible way, but you’re wrong!
If you’re a complete beginner or someone who has tried and failed in the past, you’re in the right place. Through my workshops, I will help you to begin your crochet journey (again), and this time I promise I’ll get you #Hooked! (although i won’t be held responsible for the amount of yarn and accessories you’ll no doubt end up buying, and the obsession that will grow with every stitch!
Don’t take my word for it though, have at look what my students have said…

Thank you
“My first time picking up a crochet needle and Emma’s class really put me at ease and taught me exactly what I wanted to begin with. Thank you.”

Online beginners crochet
“I’d been given a lot of crochet stuff for Christmas and a book, but I found it really difficult to understand the mechanics of the stitches from static diagrams. Emma’s 2 hour beginner class over Zoom was perfect to get me up and running with all the basic stitches I need to start with crochet. The camera angle was perfect to see what was being done, and Emma repeated demonstrations when I didn’t quite get them the first time. She also provided some helpful materials as a reminder after the class. Definitely recommended.”

“I’ve attempted crochet before on more than 1 occasion and not got my head around it. 2 hours with Emma and the basics have fallen in to place! Emma was very clear, friendly and very patient. Great course and I’m glad I’ve finally started my hooking journey!” Sarah-Jane Lloyd
Excellent course
“Excellent course! I had done some crochet as a child but had forgotten what to do. Emma explained everything very clearly and using good camera angles. She looked after everyone on the course and made sure we all got to the same place. Very pleased that I took part.”

Beginners Crochet course
I have never crocheted before, Emma was very kind and patient, she explained the techniques clearly and was happy to repeat the demonstration as many times as I needed. Now I need to practice.
