About this Event
Learn how to crochet a beginner-friendly origami bag using old clothing, sheets, towels, or even plastic bags! In the first part of the class, students will explore making "yarn" out of repurposed materials. Students will then use the yarn they created to crochet a cute origami bag. This is a perfect project for beginners.
Note: Students should bring old t-shirts, sheets, towels, or at least 3 plastic grocery bags. 8mm crochet hooks will be provided.
