Lets begin at the Beginning

Crochet is a very easy craft once you have got the basics stitches learn't there isn't a pattern that you can't do.All you need is a hook and some yarn.Like knitting your thickness of yarn depends on the size of you hook, but that doesn't mean you have to stick to the rules!

Note* All instructions given on site are for right-hand crochet - there are plenty other blogs that give resources for left-hand crochet.

Note* I was going to attempt to sit and write every instruction out, however I have found that LionBrand now have great instructual videos that you can view for free, just sign up to their site.

On their site you will find written sources to all these stitches and more
