ABOUT THE FACILITATOR:

Hello, I am Tessa also known as JingoCrochet, I am an elementary school teacher here in Calgary. My newfound love for crocheting began back in June of 2021 when a student I was tutoring during my undergrad wanted to learn how to crochet so I taught myself how to in order to help them. Immediately I became obsessed with crocheting and have been ever since. I adore making cute crochet plushies (amigurumi) and crochet garments. I have always wanted to combine my two passions of teaching and crocheting and share the joy of crochet with others. You can follow my crochet journey and keep updated on my upcoming events on Instagram @JingoCrochet
