free baby crochet patterns for your crochet project

If you are learning how to crochet, there are some things to consider that will make your crocheting experience easier and more fun. Patterns and instructions are generally written for right-handed people.

If a series of stitches doesn't making sense by following the written instructions, often the symbols can clarify what is actually meant. If you are trying to read and understand a crochet pattern, the best way is to have both the written instructions and the symbols handy. Crochet is a series of interlocking loops of thread onto a chain using a thin rod with a hook at the end.

You will need to make a slip-knot on the hook. Better safe than sorry; buy enough yarn to complete you project and if you re unsure it s better to have too much than not enough. Women in the nineteenth century were familiar with crochet and therefore instructions that we need today were unnecessary at that time.

In short time you will likely be replacing your beginners crochet patterns with ones that are much more elaborate. Have fun and don't give up to soon when you learn to crochet.
