WEST PARIS – West Paris Public Library will host Community Crochet, a free three-week beginner/intermediate instructional series for all ages beginning Saturday, March 11.
There is no charge to participate. Participants will need to bring a crochet hook and a ball of yarn.
Donna Marshall will be facilitator. She learned to knit and crochet as a teen and fell in love with the art of amigurumi crochet (crocheted toys) a few years ago. She has experimented with all kinds of “yarns” over the years: acrylic, wool, cotton, jute, hemp, and plasti. Retirement has given her the time to pursue her passion for crochet, a passion she’d like to share with others.
“Crochet is more than doilies,” she said. “If you can think it, you can probably find a pattern and make it.”
Classes are from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m. and will be held in person at the library, 226 Main St.
The schedule is:
March 11: Learn basic crochet techniques and stitches for beginners. Learn to read a pattern.
March 17: Choose a pattern to create.
March 25: Work on individual projects. Troubleshoot any crochet problems.
