Crochet 101: Single Stich

Hi guys,
                Welcome back to Easy Crochet 101. If you already mastered the foundation chain, this post will teach you how to make a Single crochet stitch. The Single crochet is the simplest stich in crochet. This stitch creates a tight and dense fabric. You can use this stitch over and over by itself or combine with other stitches.
                First step is making a foundation chain like I shown you before.

Crochet 101: Tools

Hi guys!

Welcome back to Easy Crochet 101! In this post, I will introduce you to the basic tools that you will need for crocheting. The reason I love to crochet is because it’s very affordable. For a basic crochet project, all you need is 3 things: yarn, the right crochet hook and a pair of scissors. I will show you what the best yarn and hook that you’re going to need to get started.


There are a lot of types of hooks, with a variety of shapes and sizes out there. The hook can be made of wood, plastic or iron, and there are also many sizes that vary from as small as 2, to even as big as 10. When you go out and get your first hook, I highly recommend that you get a 5, to 5.5 size iron hook, because a iron hook causes less friction with the yarn, and slides on the hook smoother. It’s also lighter and cheaper. The 5 to 5.5 size hook will create a bigger stitch, and will be easier for you to see where the stitches are.

When you go and choose yarn, pick yarn that has a bright, solid color. The reason for this is that when you first start to crochet, it’s really hard to know where your stitches are, especially if the yarn has dark or multi-color. For the type of yarn, you should look for a medium weight yarn. If you are not sure if the yarn is the right kind, just look for a label and make sure it says number 4 "medium" on it.

Crochet 101: Reasons, Inspirations and Expectations

Hey there!
            I’m so glad that you stopped by my blog! First and formal: Welcome to Easy Crochet 101. I’m Nhan, and I’m a marketing student with a love for crafting. I love to crochet, sew, make paper craft, dabble in wood craft and also painting. I always prefer to make a gift over buying one. It may be cheap, but it’s always more meaningful; it shows that you care and you put thought and love into your gift. Making a gift is also a way for you to stay creative. So on this blog, you will not only be able to learn how to crochet, but also how to stay creative and maybe a little about the art of giving a gift. I hope you find my blog helpful, and that we have fun along the way!
