crochet bikini pattern

A crocheted afghan is a great gift for family and friends. As the simplest of the crochet designs, these can be the best to cut your teeth on when it comes to enhancing your skills.

You can tell what batch the yarn comes from by looking at the batch number on the ball band. If so the first thing that comes to mind is a granny square hat. You can do a simple, solid pattern, mix it up, or even add some pattern designs throughout.

And if you are really ambitious, make a scarf! It can be any width, and any length. The official Crochet Guild of America features lessons as well as crochet ideas for new learners. The repetition is something that your hands actually learn.

I find it very relaxing, a great stress reliever. It is also fun to work with the different yarn colors and textures.
