I taught my 3 sons the chain stitch. They made a chain that went from the upstairs to the basement for the Christmas tree. I tried to teach my granddaughter how to crochet but she is left handed and it has been difficult. She keeps trying and the computer is making it easier to show her.
I am teaching my 5 yr. old granddaughter to knit and I am busy making a lot of baby things as I am going to have my first great grandson in April
I am teaching 3 woman to crochet in an Adult Ed class and 2 have started coming to our knitting/crochet group. This is a wonderful place for patterns and info.
Last summer, I taught my 8-yo grandson to single-crochet. He LOVES it. But, alas, his family moved 11 hrs away since then. It was so exciting watching his excitement in learning.
I personally have not taught any kids yet but my Grandma and my Aunt used to Crochet me pretty Red Vests and other pretty items. I want to get started with Crafts and would love to win these pretty colors of Red Heart Swerve Yarn. Thanks, Cecilia CECE
I initiated a program for boys and girls 10-13 years old in an inner city school to knit and crochet. This is our 4th year and we have a solid core group of 2 boys and 10 girls who are enthusiastic and eager to learn. Our goals include making something for someone else. We have a small budget but depend on donations. Everyone is having a great time.
Teaching my daughter now. My son wants to learn. 1 kid at a time!
Yes I taught my 3 boys and my daughter. My daughter was only 4 and she did an awesome job on a piece about an inch square.. I carried it in my wallet for many years. I also video taped her learning.. IT WAS FUN!!
I haven’t had the opportunity to teach any children yet. I am looking forward to the opportunity to show all of my nieces this wonderful hobby!

I taught my son a little crochet when he was 14 (before he lost interest).
