free patterns crochet ski hat - crochet 101

Crochet afghan cover patterns are one of the popular crochet projects enjoyed by both beginners and advanced crocheters. The internet is full of websites that can teach you crochet.

In selecting your yarn, there are five basic types: baby/fingering, sportweight/baby, worsted weight, chunky and bulky. Colors in soft, fuzzy materials provide a diversion to the cold, hard and glaring screens of your office computers that you have been staring at for the whole day. Even so, you may still need to play around wth the tension - adding or reducing the number of stitches until the tension square matches that in the pattern.

It may be easier to fit if you are working with someone else s measurements. Crochet can be done with the minimum amount of equipment and mess, and is very quick to tidy away. These patterns provide complete instructions starting from what type of yarn and hook should be used for the project.

I find it very relaxing, a great stress reliever. It doesn't end there.
