crochet

The methods for forming the stitches and holding the hook and yarn remain the same; you simply use your left instead of right hand. Anyone who crochets will tell you that the ability to design and make with their own two hands a variety of beautiful and completely unique pieces is absolutely priceless.

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. We of course just feel like we are just being useful with our hands. I have known three housewives who have gone into crocheting, first as a hobby, and then into business, making sweatshirts, shawls and pillowcases in different designs and different colors.

You should begin by holding your crochet hook in your right hand. You'll be amazed at how easily and well you pick up the art. Other popular brands of crochet yarn include Baroque, Senso, Cordonnet, Manuel and Flora threads, among others.

As a beginner learning crochet, you will no doubt find a little frustration at times. A free crochet pattern for an afghan cover is not only a great way to start, but it is also fun.
