As the simplest of the crochet designs, these can be the best to cut your teeth on when it comes to enhancing your skills. The methods for forming the stitches and holding the hook and yarn remain the same; you simply use your left instead of right hand.
If you are making the crochet scarf for yourself not a bad idea if this is your first attempt then the choices are all yours. From home d cor to today s fashion, the addition of simple crochet either as the complete design or as a supplemental touch can make an item truly unique. I have known three housewives who have gone into crocheting, first as a hobby, and then into business, making sweatshirts, shawls and pillowcases in different designs and different colors.
In selecting your yarn, there are five basic types: baby/fingering, sportweight/baby, worsted weight, chunky and bulky. If you are a beginner and frequently lose your place, write the patterns on lined paper, one instruction at a time. After you crochet your project, you may want to try your hand at something a little larger.
The most important thing to remember when starting to crochet is not to get overwhelmed. I am sure that you will enjoy your crochet experience.
