Craftsy is a series of how to videos for several different crafts, hobbies, and projects that are available for free through our Hoopla database. Each craft, hobby, and project is broken down into a series of short videos which can be borrowed and watched individually. Here are a few examples of the crafts and hobbies available:

  • Sewing and quilting, as well as how to make projects like a shirt or a t-shirt quilt
  • Knitting and crocheting, as well as how to dye your own yarn or make something like socks or a hat
  • Baking, including breads, pastries, cookies, and cakes
  • Dessert decorating tips and techniques for cookies, cakes, and cupcakes

All Craftsy titles can be found by clicking on this link or by visiting Hoopla's website and typing "Craftsy" in the search bar. If you're using the Hoopla app, tap the Search tab and type "Craftsy" in the search bar.
