Crochet a bag workshop 🧶

When: Saturday, June 20th | 6:30 PM – 9:30 PM

Where: Café Atelier, Postjesweg 57, 1057 DW Amsterdam

Join us for a cozy & creative evening of crafting! In this workshop, we’ll be slowing down to learn the art of crochet and you’ll make your very own trendy, sturdy bag from recycled t-shirt yarn. Perfect for the spring, summer and festival season! :) Whether you are looking to pick up a new hobby or just want a mindful break from a busy week, this is the perfect space to unwind.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

We will all be working on the same base bag pattern, a design that is stylish and also an eye-catcher. While we’ll follow the same foundation, you are more than welcome to add your own creative "spice" to make the bag just yours. In case you don’t finish the bag during the session, you will leave with the skills and the instructions to finish the bag at home!

Never held a crochet hook before? That's okay! This session is suitable for beginners. I’ll be there to guide you through the process.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

• 3 hours of hands-on, guided crochet instruction.
• All the materials you need, like high-quality recycled t-shirt yarn, and a hook
• Drinks and snacks
• A selection of yarn colors to choose from to match your style.
• A cozy atmosphere at Café Atelier (the perfect setting for some mindful making!).

WHY ITS SUPER FUN?

• Learn a new craft to keep you busy: Crocheting is a form mindfulness (I would say ;)), slows things down, and its even a bit addictive!
• Personalize it: Build the foundation together, then add your own spice if you want.
• Meet new people: Enjoy a lovely evening in good company.
• You can tell people you made this bag (something to be proud of)

FAQ

Do I need any experience?

Nope! This workshop is beginner-friendly. We’ll take it slow, and I’ll be right there to help you at your own pace.

What if I don’t finish my bag in time?

We have plenty of time, but crochet is a process! If you don’t manage to finish your bag during our time together, don't worry. You’ll head home with the exact skills and instructions you need to finish it off easily.

How does the color selection work?

Because the yarn is upcycled, every batch is special. I’ll bring a beautiful variety of colors for you to choose from!

Just yourself and an open, creative mind!:)
