Explore sustainability and upcycling by creating simple crochet baskets using yarn made from t-shirts. You will need basic crochet skills and a playful curiosity to make the best of this short course.

Learn in a friendly and supportive environment, with plenty of time to make and explore your new skills and leave with the knowledge to complete a larger project, and a good start for future creations.
