My Project

I have a group of middle school students who want to learn to crochet amigurumi. I have been crocheting for a year and it is my favorite hobby. Students need crochet hooks and special yarn to learn.

Our school needs more clubs to support student interests.

If we receive these supplies I will be able to offer a lunch club to help teach students to crochet. I have had many students ask for me to teach them this skill, but without the necessary supplies, I could not start a club.
