Hook, Rounds and Stitch: What a fab morning

What a fab morning

Well the beginners class was really good. I dont have any pictures to show, (didn't take any), however I think all the new ladies enjoyed themselves :)

We did the usual and finished off with a Granny Square - well done ladies.

Hopefully you will have all gotten the crochet bug, and as once said, if not once but several times,
'its eassssssssssssy!'

Our new Ladies were,

Elaine, Helen, Meg, Jean and Marilyn and we had a rather quick visit from Elaine and her granddaughter.

Hopefully they will join us next week or in events to come.

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
