Each week focuses on a new set of foundational techniques to help you gain confidence and independence as a crocheter.

This is a focused class on the art of turning a sock heel. This class will help you tackle one of the most important parts of sock construction.
We'll walk through the process of turning a heel, exploring the techniques and stitches that transform a flat piece of knitting into the shape that makes a sock fit. You'll gain a better understanding of how heel construction works and build the confidence to incorporate it into your future sock projects.

I’ve been hooked on fiber crafts since I learned to crochet at 14, and my passion has only grown! By 22, I was spinning my own yarn, and a year later, I dove into dyeing and processing fiber. At 25, I picked up knitting, completing my fiber journey. I’m always up for learning new techniques and taking on creative challenges. If it involves yarn, fiber, or needles, I’m in!

As a mom of 5, I started crocheting and knitting to outfit my babies. As they grew, I was completely hooked on yarn crafts and discovered the deep rabbit hole of different patterns and got addicted to sock knitting. My knitting motto is: "Anything is possible, it is all just one stitch at a time!"

I grew up in a creative family watching everyone I knew using different skills. When I was 14 my dad said, “if you can’t find what you’re looking for you should make it yourself.” I took that to heart and started collecting every skill I could think of to bring my ideas to life. Now I aim to share that ability with others.

My name is Tayvona (pronounced Tay-vonna)…but I’m also known by my nickname, Cookie. I am native to Dayton and I’ve been crocheting for over thirty years. As a kid I had an insatiable desire to learn everything crochet and the same is still true today. Along the way, I’ve learned many skills, tools, and tips that have helped me in my crochet journey. I take pride in my skill because it’s my passion-I strive for only the best with whatever I create and teach. It is my joy to help others learn the fascinating world of crochet too.
