It looks like crocheting is a lot quicker... I want to learn how! Anyone know of any websites that teach you how?? :D Mao 03-05-2006, 08:48 PM I used to crochet many moons ago! Here are a couple of sites that might help you: http://crochet.about.com/library/blbeginners.htm http://www.learntoknit.com/ (dont be put off by the link name!) http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com/directory/tutorials.php HTH! chrissy0718 03-05-2006, 09:02 PM Thanks!

Both tried to teach me, but they decided I was a lost cause. LOL! dream 03-06-2006, 06:40 PM I'm just starting to crochet again my mom does things so fast its crazy, those links do look really helpful :) galxy8 03-07-2006, 01:08 AM I do have one of the tableclothes my Mom crocheted that I use on our dining room table. The detail just amazes me. rosebud* 03-07-2006, 02:44 AM Crochet for dummies is a really good book to learn because they show you everything and have really good pictures. Plus they have lots of really easy patterns. Lilithdrff 03-07-2006, 09:46 AM I remember my grandma teaching me to crochet when I was young, but I really don't remember a darn thing, lol. Maybe I'll buy crochet for dummies and re-learn, I love croshet stuff. Jen 03-14-2006, 12:41 PM those look helpful! thanks! airyn1 03-14-2006, 04:02 PM That's weird. I'm the exact opposite. I can do some basic crocheting, but I always felt like knitting looked like it would go faster. Nakule 12-11-2006, 09:13 AM I am wanting to learn to crochet myself, I would love to make a scarf for me this winter!

Is it different if you're left-handed? Jennifer 12-14-2006, 02:22 AM ooh I've always wanted to learn how to crochet. Is it different if you're left-handed? It is, but not that hard. I can crochet both right and left handed. Check out Crochet for Dummies, also, check out Michaels or Roberts or any craft store in your area, they may teach classes inexpensively. I'm making hats right now! Nakule 12-17-2006, 08:14 PM It is, but not that hard. I can crochet both right and left handed.
