crochet pattern central - just like grandma used to do it

Many people, when hearing the word crochet, instantly conjure the image of an elderly woman sitting in a chair, crochet hook held firmly in arthritic fingers as she concocts another table doily. Start with basic and easy to learn stitching techniques and then gradually as you grow in confidence you can upgrade for more difficult and intricate types of embroidery.

And if you are really ambitious, make a scarf! It can be any width, and any length. The kind of yarn is mercerized twice, giving it strength as well as shine. When reading crochet instructions, brackets and parentheses are used to convey related stitches.

When using a substitute yarn make sure the length is the same as the one suggested in the pattern. Each stitch is completed when only a single loop remains on your crochet hook, and then the next stitch is worked. Beyond the basics it s up to you to practice, practice, practice.

You can create many great and useful items for wearing and making your home warm. Keep in mind that patterns can be adapted to suit the purpose of the project.
