Crochet info for new crocheters




Well, I have promissed to start sending crocheting info to my students and here it is for this week.


I hope you are practicing so that we can a new project next time.

To help you learn here is the link to a list of crochet abbreviations.




If you need to go shopping for additional yarn or hooks you can get coupons here, enter your zip code and find the store and coupon link.


To refresh your memory here are some you tube videos for basic stitches.





I hope this helps, practice, practice, practice and I will see you next time.

The picture above is the shawl that you can make with the 2 stitches above, something to aspire to. I will be finished writing this pattern by the next class.

Have a great day,
Snezana
