THANK YOU! I wanted to make a hat for my boyfriend and some baby clothes for my friend who’s expecting and you just saved me $100 on crochet classes! Cheers!!
I am a crafty guy. Can’t think of any reason or time for me to crochet, but I could watch this stuff for hours. So relaxing… apart from all those “yarn over”s.
Hey Naztazia, I am trying to make a blanket from a simple double crochet/ single crochet. Are there any patterns that are good for beginners like me that you are aware of ? I checked the all free crochet page and it seems most of it is a bit above my skill level! Thanks!!

@morning1princess Awesome! Thank you so much for the feedback. Sorry for being late on my response – recently had a baby boy. He’s taking most of my time these days
Thanks for stopping by!
i wanted to learn to crochet, so i went out and bought a video, after watching it and rewinding and rewinding and rewinding i still could not figure out what they were talking about, someone mentioned checking out youtube to see if there was any help here, i stumbled upon your videos and have already started crocheting!! your videos are for an actual beginner, not what some people think a beginner should already know- thank you so much, i’m very excited to start working on something big!!
@omfgidontcare1 Awesome! Glad the video could help. Thanks for stopping by
thank you thank you thank you! this is the only video that nade working in the round clear!!!
I’ve been working from a book so far and in 5 minutes you’ve answered all of my questions. Thank you so much!
I found this really useful after searching youtube for the right video! I’ve been struggling to move on from a chain stitch! But I’m still confused about something, if you don’t mind helping me. If you skip three stitches at the beginning of each row when you double crochet, aren’t you going to have less stitches in your work? Does that not make it smaller?
And Congratulations on your pregnancy!! It’s a very lucky baby to have a mummy who can crochet like you! =D

@TigressChristiana Thank you for the kindness and glad the videos could help
This is a *wonderful* video! I’ve always wanted to crochet since I was a little girl and never could figure it out! Thanks so much for the help! =)
Both these videos are great for Beginners or Crocheters that need to refresh memory.
Finally crochet makes sense to me. I have so many patterns I want to do and my 2yr old daughter fell for a duck afghan that I want to make for her, I am so glad I found your videos so I can do this.
I really like the cardigan you are wearing in your videos, is that something you have a pattern for?
