For children ages 6–12, this 45-minute Dallas Public Library class introduces chain stitches and flat crochet as the first steps in a scarf project that continues through monthly sessions.

All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
At Fiber Lab: Crochet, children start a scarf by learning the stitches that make it possible: first a chain, then crochet worked back and forth across a flat piece. The December 1 class at Timberglen Branch Library is part of a monthly project series, not a promise that the scarf will be finished in one sitting.
The lesson moves from chain stitches to working crochet back and forth on a flat. Children will use those techniques toward a basic scarf of their own, applying the same stitch sequence as the piece grows.
The library’s fall life-skill focus is crochet. Its description connects learning a skill with developing focus, attention to detail and confidence, making the scarf a way to practice a technique over time rather than a quick, separate craft.

The calendar shows four monthly meetings in 2026: September 1, October 6, November 3 and December 1, each from 4 to 4:45 p.m. As of November 7, the first three dates have passed; December 1 is the next listed session. The library describes monthly follow-ups to help children complete the project, but gives no dates after December 1.
The event information does not say whether a child may join at the December meeting without attending earlier sessions. Families unsure whether the class is suitable as a first visit can check with Timberglen Branch Library.
