A crocheted afghan is a great gift for family and friends. You will need a few items to start, among which will include your preferred yarn color, small scissors, a size G crochet hook, and a yarn needle with an eye large enough for the yarn.
When someone asks you to make something for them, write it in a notebook. Now the reason you are reading this article is because you are looking to expand your knowledge of crochet patterns. Free crochet baby pattern sites are actually sprinkled across the Internet so take advantage of the accessibility and try your hand at a crochet baby pattern before committing to a full one.
Some crocheting, such as lace, is actually much easier to follow using a chart, than reading written instructions. Each stitch is completed when only a single loop remains on your crochet hook, and then the next stitch is worked. Some of the more common stitches are chain, single crochet, half-double crochet, double crochet, popcorn crochet, and cluster crochet.
Have fun and don't give up to soon when you learn to crochet. Empty prescription bottles can be very handy for keeping smaller crochet tools like row counters, beads, and yarn needles.
