2. When do I pay?
Payment is due at the time of booking so I can lock in your spot.
Once you fill out the google form, I’ll send you a confirmation and payment request with all the details!
3. How do I book?
Easy!
Just go to the google form here, fill out your preferences, and I’ll email/message you to confirm your spot, or shoot me an email and I’ll walk you through registration!
4. Where do we meet?
Wherever you’re comfy: your home, a cozy coffee shop, a quiet library room, a sunny local park. Only exception is if we are not familiar with each other, the first few sessions must occur in a public space.
If you're outside Greater Indianapolis area, a travel fee will apply.
We do not offer Zoom Lessons at this time.
5. What ages do you teach?
Kids ages 8–15.
Adults 16+.
Under 8?
Tiny hands + yarn + scissors = a nope from me for now.
6. What will we learn?
In beginner lessons we cover:
-How to Hold the Hook
-Tension Tricks
-Slip Knot, Chain, Slip Stitch, Single, Half Double, Double, and Treble Crochet
Once the basics feel good, we start dipping into pattern reading and making small, fun projects. When you reach an intermediate level, I lovingly kick you out of the nest so you can fly off and crochet big beautiful things all on your own.
7. Do you provide materials?
Totally up to you!
Beginner Materials Kit: $15 (recommended for kids, basic hooks and 2 skeins of yarn)
Premium Materials Kit: $60 (recommended for those who want to invest in higher quality hooks, will also come with yarn for first session)
BYO materials: I’ll give you a list of everything you need before your lesson.
8. What's your cancellation policy?
Life happens; kids, jobs, chaos, we all get it. Here’s how I keep it fair:
Cancel 24+ hours before your lesson → free reschedule
Cancel under 24 hours → $15 cancellation fee
No-shows → no refund (sorry!)
9. How long are sessions?
The typical length of a session for both kiddos and adults is one hour.
However, for adults we have the option for longer sessions if you want to tackle a bigger project or melt your brain on granny squares.
10. Who shouldn't book a session?
I teach beginners through intermediate crocheters.
If you’re looking for advanced lacework, Tunisian masterclasses, or help writing a full pattern book — that’s outside my lane right now. I’ll cheer you on from afar, though!
