free crochet baby patterns - basic Crochet

The early development of the craft of crochet is linked to the imitation of lace and lace making. Because of its calming, rhythmic movements, many studies have shown positive results for people suffering from chronic depression, Alzheimer s disease, dementia and schizophrenia.

If you are using a different yarn to the one suggested in the pattern be careful to make sure that it knits to the correct tension. You can do a simple, solid pattern, mix it up, or even add some pattern designs throughout. If you are working with specific colors, you can not guarantee that you will be able to color match exactly the yarn you have been using.

Materials such as wood, rattan, metals, leather can be incorporated in various ways with crochet fabrics to create many fashionable designs. In addition to making outfits for loved ones, you can crochet a dress in many styles and colors for a child s favorite doll. Although this may sound complicated in practise it is very easy to do.

Just like any craft, you have to enjoy it and truly have a passion for it to produce great works of yarn art. Just get yourself a crochet tote bag (or crochet one yourself) and you are ready to go.
