crochet yarn

The word crochet comes from the French croche or croc meaning to hook. Antique crochet has a lot of character, and so antique patterns are searched for by those looking to recreate classic styles and projects from a time gone by.

Once you have learnt these stitching types you will see for yourself that how many different designs you would be able to create without having to consult others for your own creativity. Crochet was considered to be suitable only for the rich with the poorer people having knitted items. It is important to select the appropriate pattern that will fit the size of the intended project.

You can get detailed instructions online and more patterns than you will ever use in your lifetime. When reading crochet instructions, brackets and parentheses are used to convey related stitches. Soon you ll find that picking up a crochet hook is much like picking up a pencil your hands know what to do.

Everyone can learn to crochet, practice up! It doesn't end there.
