There’s an old saying that goes, “Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach.”

Randy Cavaliere
Teaching Crochet

In the crochet world, those who can often do as well as teach. As a crocheter who earns a living from technical editing, designing and instruction, teaching others to crochet is incredibly satisfying to me. I was certified by the Craft Yarn Council as a Crochet Teacher in 2006. Since then, I’ve taught students from 8- to 80-years-old in individual and group sessions. I’ve taught at World Wide Knit in Public Day celebrations and Maker Faire, on subway commutes, at family and friend gatherings, and in the Continuing Education Department of a community college where I created beginner and intermediate level courses. I’ve taught one student in her living room and 18 in a classroom.
