about.com has an awesome crochet site. There are videos that show every step along the way. I used it frequently to refresh my skills once I started crocheting again. Good luck!!

I bought a kit from Walmart entitled "Teach yourself to crochet". It included several crochet tools. All I had to do was buy the yarn and I was ready to start. It did take a little time to figure out from the pictures, but after one night, I was making chains pretty well.

My daughter and I took lessons last week and we both failed miserably. This week we are knitting our afgans. It proved to be much easier for both of us.
I did look at knitting websites yesterday and there are afgan patterns, knitting dictionaries to look up abbreviations etc.
Our public library has both knitting ahd crocheting how-to books so you might check out yours as well. We found that it is best to sign out several books because the how-to directions can be lousy.

Michaels the craft store has lessons that are not very expensive. Good luck. I have been crocheting for years and am absolutely addicted!!! It is very relaxing and there are so many cool things you can make!!!

Sorry, the only people that know how to crochet are too busy in nursing homes!
