crochet

Anyone who crochets will tell you that the ability to design and make with their own two hands a variety of beautiful and completely unique pieces is absolutely priceless. A crochet baby blanket pattern is not only simple to make, but it is also a very popular and unique gift.

If you don't want to end up with your sleeves a different shade to your body, make sure all of the batch numbers on the balls you buy are the same. Yarn companies dye yarn in large batches and there can be slight variations in color between the batches. And you ll certainly have a unique outfit that you are guaranteed will be the only one of its kind.

It's always best to choose a yarn of the same weight - worsted, finering, chunky etc. All you need to read a pattern is to know how to do your crochet stitches and remember that they are abbreviated in the pattern. Crochet is an ideal craft to do when you re travelling.

Take your time and concentrate on your technique. Remember that perfection is not necessary.
