Crochet Made Easy

Crochet Made Easy is written for beginners and features easy-to-understand diagrams and step-by-step instructions to illustrate crochet stitches and techniques.
 
Included 8 Patterns. When you have mastered the basic techniques, try the projects included at the back of this book—they're designed especially for beginners!
 
General information is included about yarn, thread, and crochet hooks. We recommend reading through the book to become familiar with terminology before picking up your hook and yarn. When you're ready, use a Medium Worsted Weight yarn (size 4 on chart at right) and a 5 mm (US-H-8) or 5.5 mm (US-I-9) hook to learn to crochet.
Diagrams and Instructions
Diagrams are shown for right-handers. Because of space limitations, it is not possible to show left-handed diagrams. If you are a left-hander and are having trouble understanding the diagrams, try tracing the diagrams and then turning the tracing paper over and looking at the reversed image. When reading instructions, substitute "left" for "right" and "right" for "left" where it appears.
The abbreviation and symbol are shown with the instructions for each stitch.
