CROCHET INTRODUCTION

Crochet is a process of creating fabric from yarn, woolen thread, or other material strands using a crochet. Basic materials required for crochet are a hook and some woolen threads. It is an interesting craft. There are different basic crochet stitches to learn. Learning is a little difficult but once you got the knowledge and skill you will create wonderful things out of this.

I don’t know how to teach each and every stitches and steps so better you can search it in the internet. There are lots of “free crochet patterns for beginners” are available.

Some most common stitches which we uses in the patterns are chain stitch, slip stitch, single crochet, half single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, triple crochet etc. By using these we can make shell stitch, puff stitch, V stitch etc.

Using crochet we can make a number of things like table mats, doilies, bags, pouches, dolls, coasters, hair bands etc.

Once you have learned the basic stitches, you will start your first pattern. The crochet patterns are written using many abbreviations and terms, which reduce the space and make patterns easier to read.
