I love to crochet and wondered if anyone else out there does too. I like to work from U Tube tutorials which I find very helpful and I can work from pattern too.
Why not post any tried and tested tuts here.
My favourite for making baby booties and so easy to make.

I am self taught at crochet too and love making granny square afghans, mainly cause they can be made in many different colors -- unfortunately -- I find when I sit to crochet now it puts me to sleep...lol :ahhhh:
-
Yep I am self taught. I look in awe at some of the amzing things experienced crocheters can do. I love doing the granny squares too and have just done 2 baby pram blankets, one in blue and one in pink ready for our new grandbaby when it arrives as we dont know what it is yet.
Oh here is a taboggan hat tut Nitab

Believe it or not Mother did teach most of us how to do certain things like this , I managed embroidery before the old man did his things as to this is to girly or whatever the heck his reason was, cause now I certainly would not mind having me a Dr. Who scarf all 20+ feet of it.

:tearlaugh: you beat me to it Nitab....that would have been a Gallery Classic :icu:

Well, I do have a 10' one in black that I wear just because ... I like to make peoples heads turn

I have several "old" books on crocheting and seeing those doilies I remember my mom and I sitting down doing a bunch of them. She could do some pretty intricate ones. I do some that were a fancy to me. I still ahve a bunch of them that lived through our bit of living in a rainforest (while the roof leaked so badly).
I still use them too but since she died I find it hard to do the doily thing, could be why crocheting puts me to sleep now.
I tried knitting but one can make a long chain for awhile...could never get the hang of turning or actually making it look like anything.
I have made ponchos, scarves, doilies, caps, small dresses, afghans, bed dolls, jewelry (when I was 18 I taught my co-worker how to crochet and he made necklace for his mom) and potholders (those looked like little dresses), crocheting is fun.

I adore crochet, Tend to do it most of all now. I made a blanket this year for my mum for xmas and it turned out beautifully, I was really happy with it, I'm now working on, well lets see... LOL a baby blanket and a polka dot bag, I can't find patterns for the bag so I'm kind of making it up as I go along ....

These are super cute! videos and all :D

I know this is an old thread but I hope the crocheters and knitters are still here. :)
I love to knit (especially socks) and crochet. I'm much better at knitting than crocheting but I recently crocheted these slippers and Infinity Scarf. They were both super quick and the accompanying videos really helped. :)

I admire the persons who make the crochet, because when I tried I did only a sequence of nodes. :tearlaugh:
I know knitting scarves, bonnets and that's it. Unless you want pullovers in a strange shape. :psycho:

I can knit but I do very little these days. Crochet is faster for some reason. No time for either at the moment but I need to get going as new grandson due on 4th July!! I got booties to crochet!! Too busy baking at the moment.
-
Congratulations for your future grandson :thumb_up:

Oh wow, how did I miss this topic!! It's been here for quite a few years and I honestly never saw it.....
Well I do hope you girls are still crocheting/knitting...I crochet since I was either 10-13 years old. Taught by 2 aunts, one taught me to crochet chains and more chains, the other finger crochet...the rest is self taught, also love the video tutorials... I can read a pattern and at some point get lost...couple of months ago, I was able to follow a written pattern and did it!!! Of course I changed something in there, lol...I was learning basic knitting but the teacher moved to another state....Some of my works(below)
