The Next Crochet Stitch!

Now, let's get into some serious crocheting!

It's time to learn a fundamental crochet stitch.  It's called the "single crochet" stitch.

In the video below, you will be guided every inch of the way to becoming pro at crocheting the single crochet stitch.

Then, after you learn how to do single crochet stitches, you will be ready to crochet a darling hairband.  The video shows you step by step how to crochet the cute headband.

So, let's get started!

You are now well on your way to becoming a crocheting expert!!!  Keep on practicing!

In case you need any of the supplies in this video, here are some links for you  :)

The First Crochet Stitch!

Do you have a crochet hook?

Practice your first crochet stitch and then practice some more.  The next lesson will be the single crochet stitch (in the next blog post).

Crochet anyone?

Start the year with a new (or renewed) hobby --

CROCHETING

yay crochet!!!

I've been crocheting since I was around 10 years old and love it!

So in honor of this wonderful hobby/craft, I will be teaching several, (more like dozens), of crochet classes right here on the Mom of 5 Daughters Blog.

If you have never crocheted before, but want to learn, these crochet classes are perfect for you.  

We will be starting out with the most basic of basics in the world of crocheting.  You can do it, I promise!

The first crochet class (intro video) covers what you will need to get started.  It is kind of boring, but necessary.  Then, the next crochet class (that will be posted tomorrow) will be lots of fun.

Ready to begin?  Of course you are :)

If you don't want to leave your house to get the crocheting hooks and yarn you will need, here are some options:

I can hardly wait for the next class, I hope you are excited too!!!
