Gill Kniveton reviewed: Beginners crochet - York

"The 3hr crochet for beginners was hosted by Stephanie who put the small group of 4 at ease straight away. Over the course, we learnt a few different stitches. Everybody went at their own pace and Stephanie took time with us all individually. She was very patient with me. Although the time went fast, it felt it was just the right amount of time as a beginner. Highly recommend this course. My friend and I enjoyed it very much. "

Bee reviewed: Lino Cuts, Fabric Printing and Stitch - Ilkley

"A lovely venue.... Course was well prepared and all equipment provided. Tutor very friendly and knowledgeable. Only downside was the only sink available was in the loo...so made it unusable while cleaning going on.... Would recommend."

Louise J reviewed: Christmas Sock Knitting Workshop with West Yorkshire Spinners’ Xmas Special Yarns - York

"As a knitter who has not ventured into complex projects, the in person course has given me the confidence to knit socks on four needles, with the dexterity and shaping - thinking in three dimensions - that requires. The teacher was able to address the problems we all encountered, not having done this before, offering advice and encouragement. I don't think you can get this from on line teaching. "

Duttons for Buttons responded:

"Hi Louise, so pleased you enjoyed the workshop and as a result have got to grips with the complexities of four needle knitting - an achievement to be truly proud of! Look out for more from Judith in 2024 when she plans to teach brioche, fair isle & cable knitting as well as sock knitting. Best wishes, Duttons for Buttons"

Tracey Whitfield reviewed: Festive Yarn Spinning & Carding

"This was a great course for an introduction to spinning (with a drop spindle) Wendy got us up and running very quickly whilst also giving us really helpful insight into different types of fibres and how they behave as well as the things that we might follow on with if we wanted to do more spinning after the course. It was great to be able to take home our first efforts at spinning yarn!"
