Choosing a crochet project can be tricky. Here are some tips to help you make the desision with ease.
Steps
-
Determine your level of skill. Make sure you can perform the basic crochet stitches, i.e single or double crochet. Patterns will normally tell you what skill level you have to be to accomplish them. The easiest projects to make are scarves or blankets.
- After you have determined your skill level, decide what you need most. For instance, do not make a scarf if you have already have several. Make something you do not have.
-
If you have a specific person in mind, such as a pregnant woman, than it would be a good idea to make a set. Choose 3 or 4 patterns that match your skill level. For a baby, you could make booties, a blanket, and a headband. Wrap them in a cute basket and you have a perfect gift for a baby shower!
Tips
- Always read through the pattern to make sure you can do what is asked BEFORE you start. For instance, if the pattern calls for a half double crochet, then learn how to do one, so you have no stress while making the project.
