I’d like to learn how to crochet all different types of things. I I bought a book, but it’s too advanced for me. Can you recommend something for a beginner?

There is an interactive CD-ROM called Crochet Made Easy developed by the super cool folks at Coats and Clark and Red Heart Yarns. It goes over all the basics with very easy to follow written, audio, and video instructions. It also has instructions for several different types of projects. I got mine at Wal-mart for about 7 bucks.
Go to http://www.craftown.com/crolesson.htm. They have diagram and direction of how to.
i’tually you will be able to crochet doilies etc…i’ve actually seen a crochet for dummies….many how to crochet books in Walmart etc…actually it is really easy to do…start with a bright yard and big hook…eventually you’ll be doing doilies etc…have fun…i love it….
Try looking at the public library or your nearest book store . there are lots to choose from. In the meantime, here is a link for you.
The Crochet Made Easy is what I used. It also has started projets so you can use the skills you are learning and you are not just practicing row after row of it.
Go to joann’s website and get yourself the 40% off coupon. the regular price of the CD at Joann Fabrics is $6.99.
Get you a skein or two of light colored, contrasting yarn and a size G, H, or I crohet hook and you will be off and running!
Good Luck and ask any questions you need!
