Learning usefully useless crap
Crap Academy is the funnest place to hang out on skool when you'd rather play hooky. The classrooms? Yooseful. The certificates? I have 3 so far! The people? My kind of clowns... The Dean? Dumbassery extraordinaire! You should definitely check out Crap Academy. Let your inner nerd earn certification in useless knowledge 🤓

So Much Fun
I enjoy Crap Academy because it is just fun. No worries about saying the wrong thing or am I going to be offensive. Jokes are allowed, puns are appreciated and silliness is expected. It is a breath of fresh air (even though it is called crap academy) in a world where there is too much heaviness.

A warm and cosy hug
Caroline is many things to me. She is an inspiration to greatness in business. She's fearless and pushes you out of your comfort zone. She's obviously incredibly talented in her craft. She has a warm, motherly energy. She makes everyone feel welcome, supported, and taken care of. Her community is the perfect symposium of all of the above. If you are an absolute beginner in your craft, she'll never give up on you, and if you are a professional, she honours your knowledge. She gives everyone a chance to shine, and being in her community is a blessing.

Best Crochet Circle
I learned crochet from my grandma as a child and never practised. I joined this community because of Caroline, and it is a wonderful space not only for crochet. Amazing members, fantastic engagement and outstanding crochets.

From Knots to Projects...
As a child I once made tea cosies, returning to crochet as an adult... I made knots! I joined the community to relearn a lost skill. It's a fantastic community especially as a beginner - or false beginner like me! I'm currently working on one of the little projects that the community has to offer. I love how members are showcased. This gives me inspiration and motivation.
