How to crochet videos

Hello,

I had a stall at a local craft fair at the weekend. It was a lovely day but I had so many people saying they would love to learn to crochet.

I have decided to do some simple how to videos.  I have just started with the basics but will progress to more advanced crochet techniques.

How to make a slip knot...

Very important we need to know how to get started.


How to crochet a chain stitch...


How to crochet a double crochet...


Is there any stitch you would like to know how to do? Let me know and I will try to make a video of how to do it.

Happy crocheting,
