tunisian crochet

For beginners, the completion of that first blanket, first scarf, first table cover, brings with it a joy that had been previously unknown. Crochet is an art which has caught up with women who have a flair for creativity.

Many of these books and magazines, are rare and expensive, putting them out of the reach of the average crafter, other than in a library, Libraries in particular are good low cost sources of patterns, however it generally takes a fair bit of time and effort to locate a suitable pattern. Crochet instructions for any particular project can be found in a variety of craft stores local to you, as well as online. There are some that sell patterns and some that will tell you where to get them for free! Yes, free.

If you are really and truly not interested in a dishcloth, then try making small bookmarks. When reading crochet instructions, brackets and parentheses are used to convey related stitches. This is why in early patterns many of the directions seem to be missing.

There are some great resources out there. Just like any craft, you have to enjoy it and truly have a passion for it to produce great works of yarn art.
