Yes, if you have not been to a colonial craft workshop before you will need to purchase a Craft Kit as well

I have been to a Colonial Craft Workshop before, do I need to get another Craft Kit

No, unless you have run out of material, just purchase the Workshop ticket

What is the Craft Circle and do I need a kit?

A craft circle is for those who are into colonial-type craft and want to meet up with others who are into any craft - quilting, plaiting, braiding, sewing, knitting, tatting, and macrame. You will need to donate five dollars, as that covers the lovely morning tea.
