Crochet for Beginners

  • Bandana 18

    Free Crochet Bandana Pattern (Step-by-Step Tutorial)

    This week I am sharing a pattern for a granny square bandana. These are so easy to make and are a perfect beginner project. I used sock weight yarn for this pattern, but you can use a different weight if you have something else on hand. You will just have to adjust the hook size and finish with the number of rounds that will fit the head size you are making it for.

  • Crochet Fish 2

    Crochet Fish Pattern – Fishing Game Part 1 – Easy Pattern

    This week's free pattern is something that I have wanted to make for a long time now. I loved playing the fishing game when I was young, where you would use a fish rod with a magnet inside to "catch" fish that also had a magnet attached. The crochet fish pattern is very easy to make and is the first pattern for the fishing game. Stay tuned for what other sea creatures I will make!

  • Crochet Popsicle Earrings

    Crochet Popsicle Earrings – FREE CROCHET PATTERN

    This week I want to share the pattern for these crochet popsicle earrings. They are very quick to make and they turned out so cute! You can use lace weight yarn or crochet thread to make these. The ones with the crochet thread will be slightly larger as the thread is thicker than the lace weight yarn.

  • Shiitake Bag Charm 1

    Crochet Shiitake Bag Charm – Bonus Chapstick Holder!

    This week, I shared the video tutorial for the Shiitake Mushroom Bag Charm. I wanted to make a little friend for the toadstool mushroom bag charm I made, and I thought the Shiitake Mushroom was a nice addition. The Shiitake bag charm just uses two colours and you don't need to know any fancy stitches. There is a little bit of embroidery for the details, but again, nothing too intricate!

You will only need to know single, double, and front post double crochet for this pattern. And if you don't want to do the ribbed edging, you will only need to know the single crochet stitch. Yay!
