Each week I will present a new lesson, which will build on the skills and techniques we’ve learned from the previous lesson. By the end of this series you will have learned and (hopefully) mastered the following basic skills:

  • Chaining,
  • Single Crochet
  • Adding a Border,
  • Half Double Crochet
  • Tools of the Trade
  •  Double Crochet,
  • Triple Crochet,
  • Changing Color,
  • Finishing off and Weaving in Ends.

Learning these basic stitches and techniques are essential in most crochet patterns. Once you have learned these, the sky is the limit as far as what you can create! We all learn differently, and I’m here to try and help in as many different formats as possible.
