Beginner Crochet Basics

Description

Crochet needs only a hook and yarn, and these ten PDF lessons start with the tools and materials. You then learn the foundation chain and basic stitches, work in rows to make a first piece of fabric and fix common beginner mistakes.

Later lessons introduce working in the round, reading patterns and understanding abbreviations, and making a first granny square. The final lessons cover color changes, finishing techniques, simple project patterns and next steps. Exercises and tables appear throughout the PDFs. After reading, you should be able to follow a basic written pattern, produce even rows and rounds and finish a small project of your own.

Who it is for: complete beginners who want to learn to crochet.
