crochet edging for ankle socks - the basics

Many people have told me that they would just love to be able to crochet, but they feel it would be too hard for them to learn. Or perhaps crochet is something that their mothers or grandmothers participated in and they want to continue the family tradition.

Cebelia yarn is designed for making tablecloths, napkins, table runners, cushion covers, curtains and many other items. You ll often find that they have a schedule of classes for those who want to learn to crochet. Over the years, there have been many, many books written on crochet and baby blankets are easily one of the most popular items to crochet.

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. In addition to yarn and hooks, there are other tools that will make crocheting easier. If you don't know how to read a crochet pattern, enlist the help of someone who does.

In short time you will likely be replacing your beginners crochet patterns with ones that are much more elaborate. Just like any craft, you have to enjoy it and truly have a passion for it to produce great works of yarn art.
