Crochet 101: Granny Square Class

Learn the essentials of crochet in a friendly, in-store class taught by A&C's Leif Saunders. Using worsted weight yarn, beginners practice single and double crochet stitches while creating a classic granny square to take home, a versatile start for blankets, bags, sweaters, and more. Please bring one skein of worsted weight cotton or acrylic yarn, a size H/5 mm crochet hook, a pair of scissors, and a yarn needle if desired. The class fee is $25, and enrollment is limited. Register by emailing kryptikfinds@gmail.com. A confirmation message will be sent once registration and payment are processed, and the instructor can provide CashApp and other payment details by email. Participants age 8 and up are welcome with an adult. The session takes place in the upstairs classroom with no elevator access. Parking and seating are limited.

Groups & Meetups

Monthly Astrology Meetup

Local astrologers, students, and anyone curious about astrology gather for an in-person meetup centered on conversation and connection. The focus is real-world networking and community building away from online discussion. Settle in with a cup of tea, share perspectives, and learn from one another. Have your birth chart handy on your phone, and bring a pen and notebook for taking notes. At times there may be a planned theme guided by participant interest, which will be announced in advance.
