Easy crochet tips and Tricks:
- When choosing crochet projects, always check the skill level needed, to be sure it’s a good fit for you.
- Crochet hook size can make a real difference in the size of your finished crochet items. If you tend to crochet quite tightly, it may be beneficial to go up a size. If your stitches tend to be loose, go down a size.
- Only have worsted weight yarn, but the pattern calls for bulky yarn? No problem! Just use two strands, held together.
- For easy washing, choose a cotton yarn for your slouchy hat patterns.
