How to turn your work when crocheting

How to turn your work when crocheting

On to the next step in the crochet process; how to turn your work when crocheting.  What happens when you finish your first row of crocheting and you have no where else to go??

You must turn your work to continue crocheting and building up the project. In this blog I will show you how to do this. I have included written instructions as well as picture instructions and a YouTube tutorial for you to follow along to.

Turning your work in crochet is a fundamental technique that allows you to change direction and continue crocheting in the opposite direction. This simple maneuver is crucial for maintaining the shape and symmetry of your project, especially when working in rows.

How to make a slip knot for crocheting

How to make a slip knot for crocheting

 

A slip knot is a fundamental element in crochet, serving as the starting point for most projects. It’s an adjustable loop that provides a foundation for the first stitch. The slip knot allows you to control the tightness of your stitches, ensuring a consistent and even tension throughout your work. It’s versatile and easy to undo if needed, making it an essential skill for crocheters of all levels. Remember to position the slip knot on your crochet hook before starting your stitches.

How to Crochet For Beginners – Easy step by step series for beginners

Hi everyone! I’m glad you found my learn how to crochet for beginners page. I am happy to share with you how to get started crocheting, what supplies you need and by the end you will be able to make a project.

I have included all eight of my YouTube videos. Each one broken down into a easy series to follow along with.

When I was little my grandma taught me how to do basic crochet. As I got older I kind of forgot how to. So, I am in the same spot you are in. Looking for help to start to learn to crochet again. I basically self taught myself to crochet again and now I love it and teach how to do it myself. I love to share with others how to do this craft called crochet.
