Cozy and Cocooned - Hand Crochet Workshop

Step into a world of softness, squish, and slow crafting in Cozy & Cocooned, a hand-crochet workshop where we stitch up wearable warmth using nothing but our hands and a mountain of chunky yarn. Imagine turning one big, fluffy square—about the size of a small blanket—into a snuggly cocoon cardigan you can wrap around your shoulders again and again. No hooks. No stress. Just cozy loops, gentle guidance, and about 200–250 yards of luxuriously thick yarn you’ll shape into something made entirely by you.

What makes this workshop special? We’ll be crocheting by hand, which means you can literally feel each stitch forming as you build your cardigan. It’s slow, soothing, and perfect for beginners—whether you’ve crafted for years or you’re just learning how yarn works (“Yes, sweet pea, we’re going to pull this string through that loop and look! You made a stitch!”). The jumbo yarn is easy to see, easy to hold, and so fluffy it feels like crocheting with warm clouds.

Here’s how our cozy adventure will go:

1. We start by choosing your yarn color (there will be 8–12 beautiful shades to pick from).
2. Next, we learn the basics—how to chain, how to make a stitch, how to keep your loops soft and happy.
3. You’ll practice on a little “warm-up swatch” (about 10 stitches wide) before moving on to the big project.
4. Then comes the magic: we make one big square, roughly 28–36 inches wide depending on your size.
5. With a few gentle folds and simple seams, your square transforms into a wearable cocoon cardigan.
6. We finish with a comfy try-on moment and add optional touches like a collar or soft edging.
7. You leave with a cardigan, leftover yarn, new skills, and hands that smell faintly of woolly triumph.

It’s cozy, confidence-building, and the kind of project that gives you that sparkly “I made this!” feeling every time you slip it on. Perfect for a relaxing afternoon, a creative reset, or the start of your handmade-wardrobe era. ✨
