Do you want to learn to crochet?
If you’ve never picked up a hook before, and don’t quite know where to start….start here! This series of tutorials will walk you through how to get started, and some of the most basic stitches and techniques. By the end of the series, you’ll be ready to test your skills with some beginner patterns.

In this lesson, you’ll learn how to make a slip knot and a foundation chain. As the name suggests, this chain will be the foundation of your crochet, and you will be working stitches into it for your first row. There will be a new video approximately once a week until the series is completed. You can find the entire Learn to Crochet series here, and as new videos come out I will add the links. Next week, I’ll show you how to work a row of single crochet stitches!
Just like any other skill, learning crochet takes practice. Soon though, you’ll be making all sorts of things with nothing more than a ball of yarn and a hook. It’s kind of like a super power!
I know most of my regular readers are already accomplished crocheters. If any of you know someone who might want to learn, please pass this along!
