What Will You Learn?

While working through this course, you will move from learning to crochet, to becoming a designer, to opening your own crochet business.

In Part I, you'll learn crochet, from how to hold the hook to reading patterns. You'll also learn a range of more advanced techniques.

In Part II, you'll learn about designing crochet pieces and writing patterns. Each section will lead you, step-by-step, through making a different type of item; practice patterns are included to get you started.

In Part III, you'll learn how to start your own crochet business, including the steps necessary for finding your target market, budgeting, and writing a business plan.

Anyone with an interest in the topic will gain something from studying the Crochet Diploma Course, as it provides tutelage for absolute beginners, with practical, guided examples that are fully illustrated, so that you can follow along easily. For those who are already hobbyist crocheters, the 2nd and 3rd parts aid students in becoming designera (or crochet artista) and detail how to go about building a business and selling your creations or patterns.
