crochet shell edge baby hat rudiments

If you are learning how to crochet, there are some things to consider that will make your crocheting experience easier and more fun. Many people find that crochet can reduce stress levels.

The weight of the hook, hook material, and finger size and length will influence your decision. It's always best to choose a yarn of the same weight - worsted, finering, chunky etc. You can learn different styles and create new shapes.

Over the years, there have been many, many books written on crochet and baby blankets are easily one of the most popular items to crochet. Learning to crochet a dress for dolls can also give you an avenue for making extra money. When traveling, use an empty plastic coke bottle to keep the hooks from escaping.

It is great to be able to make items for yourself and as gifts for family and friends. You can do it while you are watching TV, or while sitting in a doctor's waiting room, or traveling as a passenger in a vehicle.
