knit and crochet today - crochet with passion

The love of history, and the ever revolving fashion cycle have helped to renew popularity of this 19th century handcraft. The best gifts are those that are custom made for the baby.

If you can make a granny square you can put them tighter to create just about anything you want. In selecting your yarn, there are five basic types: baby/fingering, sportweight/baby, worsted weight, chunky and bulky. The official Crochet Guild of America features lessons as well as crochet ideas for new learners.

You will need to make a slip-knot on the hook. This gives you an even wider selection to choose from having both designer and generic markets available. Crochet outlet stores usually sell kits that you can assemble on your own ranging from handbags to wallets to curtains to just about anything.

That is one of the great things about crochet. Now get Crocheting.
