vintage crochet patterns

Many older women do seem to have an innate ability to crochet, simply because it was a tradition handed down from generation to generation. The word crochet comes from the French croche or croc meaning to hook.

If you know how to crochet, then you already are ahead of the game. By learning a few basic crochet stitches you will be able to make some really nice crochet projects. If you are using a different yarn to the one suggested in the pattern be careful to make sure that it knits to the correct tension.

While it may take a while to learn the symbols, they can save space, and after awhile, many experienced crocheters find them easier to read. Cebelia yarn is popular all over the world with crochet lovers for its texture, sheen and high quality. If you don't know how to read a crochet pattern, enlist the help of someone who does.

Crochet is an interesting hobby. As a beginner learning crochet, you will no doubt find a little frustration at times.
