Teens-Adults Workshops
Details about class: Learn the basics of finger-crocheting and up-cycled art. Great gift-making ideas!Choose from several projects like beanies, hand warmers, scarves, hanging bottle plants, jewelry frames or bring your own ideas and we can create them together.
Benefits of crocheting: therapeutic because of its calming, rhythmic movements. Studies have shown positive results for people suffering from chronic depression, Alzheimer's disease, dementia and schizophrenia. It relieves stress and muscle tensions after a hard day at the office as it easily takes your mind off from work and draws you deeper into a solitary hobby where you can collect your thoughts as you let your fingers do their work. Crocheting can also bond people by sharing time and working on ideas together.

Mickey, I owe you an apology for RSVPing to your workshop April 18th - and then I didn't show! Sorry, girl! I waiting until the last minute to file my taxes and then I was running all over town trying to get to the one post office that was open late. I'm really sorry for not contacting you sooner, too, to explain. However, I'm going to make it to one of your workshops soon!
