The Mattapoisett Museum at 5 Church Street is once again offering its popular Learn-to-Crochet class for beginners and advanced beginners. The class, which will be instructed by Jackie Sousa, will occur almost every Monday from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm, starting March 10 and ending April 14. Please reserve your spot at www.mattapoisettmuseum.org/event-info/crochet-for-beginners-advanced-beginners-2
Jackie recommends bringing a size G or H crochet hook and a skein of cotton yarn, such as Lily Sugar’n Cream Super Size Yarn. This class is limited to 6-9 people depending on experience level; tickets must be purchased in advance for the session. Refunds will not be given unless we have to cancel the session. The cost is $120 for Museum Members or $130 for non-members. Cash or check are preferred methods of payment. Register now and bring it to the first class.
Jackie Sousa has been knitting and crocheting since she was a small child, skills that her grandmother taught her mom and were passed down through the generations. Jackie has done craft shows and sells her goods on Facebook, which can be seen at Jackie’s Knits and Knots, where she takes special orders. Most of the classes she has taught have been in a home setting with small groups to provide more one-on-one instruction. She has also worked with the Girls Scouts and has taught many people the basics of knitting and crocheting.
