free easy crochet patterns for the beginning crocheter

For those who are just beginning the art of crochet, you have probably completed many a blanket. Yarn companies dye yarn in large batches and there can be slight variations in color between the batches.

This is the same as the basic starting chain in crochet, except you are using a crochet hook instead of your fingers. It's always best to choose a yarn of the same weight - worsted, finering, chunky etc. If you are a beginner and frequently lose your place, write the patterns on lined paper, one instruction at a time.

When you go to crochet baby blanket gifts, it will take you some time to complete. Crochet an afghan to cover your bed or your sofa. From household touches to beautiful gifts, simple crochet makes the ordinary, extraordinary.

It is also fun to work with the different yarn colors and textures. It doesn't end there.
