crochet edging for ankle socks - get creative

If you know how to crochet, baby blanket gifts make for great gifts to any new parent. Additionally, the shape of the crochet scarf is enormously forgiving of any first timer mistakes.

Although other forms of handwork can be dated far back in time, owing to archaeological finds no one is quite sure when and where crochet began. I always buy an extra ball than is recommended in the pattern just in case you need a bit extra, most good yarn stores will accept them back if you've bought too many. Also take a look at the crochet instructions to determine the materials needed for your project.

If you are just beginning crochet, it may be helpful to purchase a crochet scarf pattern to help you along. In fact even designer brands also have a collection of crochet handbags. There may be clubs in your area that meet monthly to exchange crochet patterns and to give tips to each other.

Remember that perfection is not necessary. Have fun and don't give up to soon when you learn to crochet.
