do u guys know the website teach how to crochet ? :D?

Answer 1

There's bound to be stuff on youtube. Your local library might have videos to teach you, but your best bet is to go and visit one of your old lady neighbours and ask her. There's nothing old ladies like more than to teach their craft to youngsters. Most will do anything for a bit of company. Or you might have a fibre craft guild in your town.

Answer 2

There are a variety of websites with "how to's" with anniesattic.com on the top of having video clips you can watch for free on your PC. (YouTube also has some, but content is not prescreened and because some material may be objectionable, I cannot give it a total thumbs up.)

On the Crochet Guild of America's website (www.crochet.org) you'll find various diagrams -- the diagrams are from the TNNA organization (The National Needleworks Association) long recognized as having fantastic "how to" booklets available at your better local yarn shops. The CGOA has a great chart on Turning Chains -- a must in checking out if you're interested in ensuring your crochet work will lay flat.

At the Craft Yarn Council of America's website (www.craftyarncouncil.com) they have the "Each One Teach Two" program (www.eachoneteachtwo.com) with some great instructions, no videos, just great instructions.

As already stated in another answer here, there are dvd's available on the market -- but, if you're going to go that route, why not just take the extra step and enroll in a class where your crochet instructor/teacher can not only show you the how to's but also offer encouragement? Take the class with some family members or friends and then you will all have much more fun together making the learning process that much more enjoyable!

With all that, I'd also like to recommend that you consider joining an online community -- there are many here hosted by Yahoo! including the ever-wonderful "Crochet Partners" -- a group of crocheters from around the world, of all levels, all ages, and both genders. No matter which group(s) you decide to join, they can help offer you moral support while you're learning! :)

Happy stitching,

Answer 4

Yes... I learned how to crochet from a book, but I also check websites for patterns and instructions. Here are some that are for beginners:

Single Crochet:
http://www.learntoknit.com/instructions_cr.php3

Practice this with a hook #8 or larger and thick yarn. When comfortable move on to:

http://learntocrochet.lionbrand.com/
or
http://crochet.about.com/library/blbeginners.htm

Then you can start looking for patterns and executing them.

Answer 5

Lionbrand.com has crochet instructions you can download as a pdf file. They contain some very good step by step instructions and diagrams

Answer 6

There are loads of web sites you can go to for free instructions. There are also videos you can watch. The 2 below are good sites to look at.

Answer 7

Hello! Welcome to the world of knit and crochet!

I was fortunate, my mother taught me to crochet. I tried to learn to knit from a book and websites last year, but its so hard to learn from 2 dimensional illustrations! I finally bought a "how to" dvd off eBay last year and learned to knit.

I'd recommend that....there are plenty tutorial dvds out there....

Good luck!
