For those who are just beginning the art of crochet, you have probably completed many a blanket. Crocheting is therapeutic.
It s an easily portable craft and can provide inexpensive and original gifts. Is Christmas coming fast and gift ideas slow? It's always best to choose a yarn of the same weight - worsted, finering, chunky etc.
Although other forms of handwork can be dated far back in time, owing to archaeological finds no one is quite sure when and where crochet began. 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. Some crocheting, such as lace, is actually much easier to follow using a chart, than reading written instructions.
A crochet baby pattern can be used for practice for virtually any crochet design. Better safe than sorry; buy enough yarn to complete you project and if you re unsure it s better to have too much than not enough. Magazines will contain a number of crochet patterns for baby blankets.
Once you have practiced and feel you are ready to try an easy pattern, you can do a search online for a scarf pattern, which is what most beginners start out with. There are many websites offering crochet with many designs to choose from.
