Your teacher: Jane Downey
Inspired by her grandmother, who would crochet intricate thread tablecloths without even referring to a pattern, Jane learned to crochet as a teen and now has almost 40 years of experience.
Jane is a member of the Crochet Guild of Australia and the Knitters’ Guild of NSW and has been teaching crochet for over 15 years. She teaches adults and children in both open classes and one-on-one classes, from beginner to more advanced techniques. Jane can teach both right and left handed people to crochet, and is often described as a very patient teacher. Jane is accredited to teach crochet by the Crochet Guild of Australia.
Jane has won prizes for her crochet at the Sydney Royal Easter Show, including being twice chosen for display in the Standard of Excellence cabinet. Jane has also judged the crochet at the Sydney Royal (not the same years in which she won prizes!). Jane loves crochet because of the variety of projects it lends itself to. She particularly likes to crochet garments, accessories and toys.

Thrilled!
By: Zara Shroff on 11 June 2023This class was fantastic! Jane was so lovely and a fantastic teacher. I went with my grandma who has wanted to learn crochet for 70+ years but could never find someone to teach her left handed. Jane was able to get her going and she’s thrilled! I found this class incredibly helpful and 100% worth it, as someone who learned a tiny bit from online tutorials, I found it so helpful to have someone there to show what you’ve just done as they can help point out any issues or confirm you’ve gotten it right. No online tutorial can do that! Thanks Jane and looking forward to my next class!
