Kids Advanced Crochet: Sweater/ Hoodie Workshop

Ages 9–14 • 5 Weeks • 1.5 Hours Each Week 

🍂 Sweater weather is coming, so let your crochet kid make their own!

Does your child already love to crochet and want a bigger challenge? This is the class for them.

In this 5-week advanced workshop, kids will turn their crochet skills into fall fashion they can actually wear by making their first sweater: the Franny Granny Hoodie by HanJan Crochet.

They’ll learn real garment-making skills, create something they’re proud of, and get to say, “I made my own hoodie!”

How the Workshop Works

Each week, students will learn the important part of sweater construction with hands-on guidance. They’ll then complete the repetitive crochet at home so they’re ready for the next step the following week. 

Yes, there will be crochet homework, but it's homework that is fun and they will love.  

But the payoff is pretty amazing:

5 weeks. Their first handmade sweater. New crochet skills. And a hoodie they can wear and show off all season.
