crochet patterns

Crochet patterns can look confusing at first. If you know how to crochet or are just learning how to crochet, chances are you are going to be making a baby blanket.

Crochet hooks are made from a variety of materials, including: steel, aluminum, bone or plastic. You can tell what batch the yarn comes from by looking at the batch number on the ball band. 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.

I ended up at Wal-mart late at night browsing through the craft aisles and inevitably drawn to all the cool yarns. It just takes minutes to do a whole blanket with multiple thread changes. As a matter of fact, the ability to crochet a dress can provide you with many a resource for gift giving.

Crocheting is an art form. Keep in mind that patterns can be adapted to suit the purpose of the project.
