Truly for beginners. We learned so much in our 4 hours! Various tools, stitches, styles. Toni is a talented designer/maker with an easy teaching style. I left the class both inspired and wanting more! Any class Toni teaches in my area, I am there. I’ve been following Toni and get work for years and was so excited when I found out she was teaching at Stitches West that I immediately signed up. Toni did not disappoint. She’s an amazing teacher and a beautiful person inside and out. I will sign up for any class she’s teaching at Stitches. Toni Lipsey was a wonderful teacher and made this class exceptional. She was patient with those of us who aren't experienced crocheters (a beginner like myself). She had a very nice presentation and explained the techniques very clearly. The class size was appropriate for the subject and she was available to all who had questions regarding the stitches she was teaching. I would take another class with her in a heartbeat! In the meantime, I purchased her first book (The Tunisian Crochet Handbook - A Beginner's Guide) and will continue to practice this crochet style as I purchased a pattern and yarn at the Sierra Nevada Yarn Crawl last October to crochet a shawl.Customer Reviews
