  • 4-H Crocheting Project Member Guide
    4-H Crocheting Project Member Guide Crocheting is one of the oldest needlework arts. To crochet means to form yarn or thread into a fabric using a hook. Its name comes from the French word croche, meaning “hook.” The crochet hook was one of many tools first used to make delicate lace. As time went on, more stitches and designs came into being, and crocheting became a separate art. Crocheting appeals to many people because it can be used to make a variety of creations, such as scarves, caps, vests, sweaters, purses, belts, lace, doilies, tablecloths, afghans, pillow covers, and bedspreads. In the 4-H Crocheting Project, you can learn to: • Crochet articles for yourself and others • Select, use, and care for crocheting tools • Work and share with others in your club • Keep simple records of your project and activities The 4-H Crocheting project is divided into six phases. Skills to learn and suggested articles to make are on page 2. Your club leader will teach you how to do basic crochet stitches and help you find patterns to use as you learn. When you reach the advanced phases, you’ll need to choose patterns from a variety of pattern books, needlework books, and magazines. You can find these at newsstands, notions counters, fabric stores, or specialty shops that sell yarn and thread. If you want to show others what you learn in the Crocheting project, check with your leader about exhibiting articles at fairs or other community events. If you make an article to wear, you might like to model in your county 4-H fashion revue.

    Crochet the Rainbow Granny Square Throw By: Janaya Chouinard for AllFreeCrochet.com Crochet the Rainbow Granny Square Throw is a crochet blanket that is essentially one large granny square, so you can work it as large or as small as you want by choosing how many rounds to crochet when working this up. This crochet blanket is beginner- friendly, so this is perfect practice if you're just learning how to crochet. Once you've mastered the crochet stitch pattern of this rainbowlicious design, simply keep repeating it, around and around the blanket. Keep the bright and vivid color scheme as in the photo, or you can switch things up with your own favorite color or colors. Though we love the look of this rainbow granny, it would be beautiful in ombre blues, reds, or greens, too!

  • Introduction to Crochet
    Introduction to Crochet Crochet is such a wonderful craft. There are so many facets and variations to explore with a hook and some yarn. The creative possibilities are endless. Crocheters do not just use yarn; they crochet with every imaginable form of fiber. I have seen items made with kite string, fishing line, wire, rag strips, and paper strips. I’m sure there are some fibers used for crocheting that I have yet to see. In this book, I have included an extensive collection of stitches, from the very basic to more intricate techniques. Delicate lacy openwork to heavier textures like bobbles, bullions, limpets, basket weave, and double-sided crochet, edgings, and motifs are all included. Detailed, step-by-step instructions, charts, and photographs accompany each stitch. Every stitch is ranked by level of difficulty to help you try your hand at progressively complex stitches, and there are sample projects throughout the book that showcase at least one of the stitches used in each group. In addition to the stitch section, there is a specialty crochet methods section. In this section, I have included methods such as freeform crochet, intermeshing crochet, and crocheting raglans from the top down. I have asked fellow designers, who are experts in their fields, to contribute a project in their area of expertise to the specialty crochet methods section. Contributors and their projects include: Pauline Turner, Polish Star; Melody MacDuffee, Overlay Crochet; Julia Bryant, Tapestry Tunisian; Jennifer Hansen, Hairpin Lace and Broomstick Lace; and Tatyana Mirer, Bruges Lace. Fellow freeform crocheters Prudence Mapstone, Myra Wood, and Pam Shore have graciously allowed me to show photographs of some of their garments in the Freeform Crochet chapter.

  • Pinafore Dress for Girls by Poochie Baby Introduction
    Pinafore Dress for Girls by Poochie Baby Introduction I love to crochet. This baby girl's pinafore dress is very easy to make. It is so feminine and lovely. The color choices are endless and it can be made with less than one 7oz. skein of yarn! The dress in this pattern is made with one color.... but you can make it in several different colors by simply switching out the yarn and making alternate color rows. It takes a few hours of solid crocheting to finish this dress but it is a perfect project to work on while settling down in front of the TV or while listening to a good audio book (that is my choice). I am the type of person who does not use patterns......... I absolutely hate them! I generally jot down notes when I need to but sometimes I forget what the notes mean a few months later. So, I decided that I should at least write full patterns for my favorite designs. I am also striving to write these patterns in more nontechnical terms, hopefully making them easier to understand. Perhaps someday, another person in my family will decide to pick up a crochet hook and carry on my work! I hope you enjoy the end product! Please note that this pattern may not be copied, resold or redistributed. You may sell the finished products. Happy Hooking! Materials There are some basic materials needed to complete this pattern. You will need the following supplies: G Hook or H Hook Scissors or Clippers 7oz.
