Crochet shopping list! What to buy as a beginner crocheter!

Another tip is to start with a lighter color yarn. It’s harder to see where you need to put your hook with the darker colors. Happy crocheting!

tip: if you're planning on making amigurumi/plushies, pick up a crochet hook that is 1-2 mm smaller than the recommended side for the yarn. this helps to keep your stitches small and tight so that there are less large holes in the project for the stuffing to show through. do keep in mind that going 2mm below recommended size can sometimes make it much more fiddly to work with, so as a beginner a 1mm decrease in hook size is probably more ideal :)

Great video! I started in November and my preferences so far: -I hate plastic needles, steel is better -Amore Crochet hooks are the best ergonomics; flex those JoAnn coupons and it’s less expensive -Stitch markers are a life saver -DO NOT start with dark colored yarns even though they are your aesthetic, choose neutrals if you’re allergic to bright colors -be patient and do one project at the time -do something you’re excited about (I went crazy and did a patchwork cardigan) -master the basic stitches first -experiment with texture, cotton has a learning curve but it’s achievable I’ve always wanted to learn, so I’m self taught; pretty jelly of those who had grandparents teaching you, cherish them!

FOR BEGINNERS. I’ve never bought stitch markers in my life. They are incredibly useful and a MUST for when your crochet but I use Bobby pins instead and they work just fine, so if you don’t wanna spend too much money, Bobby pins are for you

My tips for beginning resources: - Yes, medium to bulkier yarn is great especially for learning so that the stitches are visible and easy to maneuver. - Preferably i'd suggest a "chainette construction" yarn, which has its "threads" interwoven instead of twisted together so that its not likely to splice while you work with it, causing frustrations. - Yarn light in color is really nice for visibility of said stitches. - Avoid plushy, fuzzy or velvet-y yarn, theyre known to have the fuzz rip off of the thread its on, making it harder to weave in ends, and quite slippery to work with. - And lastly i'd suggest a plastic hook since atleast for me personally it was a smoother experience to learn with than metal, for its lack of grip on certain yarns.

iv been crocheting for 3 years now and I'm still learning new things about it. i thinks that's the best part about crotchet there's so much to learn that you can never get boarded

I am a beginner crocheter but a fast learner and I have learned how to make Amigurumi chunky Dino’s and have started to sell them around school and Bernat blanket yarn is literally ALL I use it is SO easy to work with and personally I think it’s great for beginners because it doesn’t fall apart as much and if you make mistakes you can easily redo it. Definitely recommend Bernat Blanket yarn Baby and regular.

I just like her personality so much that I came to watch this not for content but to get a positive vibe from her.

i just started crocheting this year because of my grandma!! it really makes me feel connected to her in some type of way! my first project was also a bag for my moms birthday so it was really emotional for both of us

I loved your tip about choosing a yarn that you love the feel/look of. That's my biggest joy in crochet is shopping through all the textures and colors. Being excited about a project and its materials/tools is what will keep you invested, so you'll actually finish it! lol

I’m not even a beginner but your enthusiasm makes this video entertaining basically what I’m trying to say is that you seem really sweet and a positive person, makes me happy to see someone else being all happy and smiley

I’m a 9 year old learning how to crochet. Technically, my first project was an amigurimi dinosaur kit that came with tutorials . What I consider to be my first project is this lavender scarf with kinda bulky yarn. I’m now starting a crochet business because you taught me how to crochet.❤

I JUST finished my first ever crochet project - a bulky blanket! I’m obsessed and have plenty of yarn to make a baby blanket! This video was SUPER helpful to give me some more guidance. You’re such a gem and absolute sweetheart! ❤ (love those earrings too!!)

I have severe anxiety so learning to crochet has been super helpful and I’m actually motivated to learn everything ‼️I eventually want to learn to crochet clothes ,blankets ,hats , etc your videos are very informative and helpful

Thank you so much for this video! It was so helpful! I am just starting my journey to crocheting, and I want to make a blanket! I am going to make a temperature blanket for this year. Definitely, watching your videos has made crocheting look super easy and less overwhelming! Thanks for being you!

i am currently working on crocheting a small shoulder bag to put small things like chapstick, keys, airpods, ect. and it is actually the first ever thing i will be able to complete😂 this video will really help me to know what do buy for my next project

I picked up crochet as a covid hobby and I FELL IN LOVE! It was a way to feel grounded in a time when the world felt like it was going to end. I had a lot of personal stuff happening in my life as well and this was a way to let the thoughts in my head speak and then let them go. I lost my aunt suddenly in November of 2019 and she loved crocheting doilies so this was a way to feel closer to her. I thought doilies would be my first project but I think it was actually a scrap yarn basket or a crappy black scarf with acrylic yarn. Then I moved on to the Harry Styles-inspired sweater which I have never finished. Now I am making three temperature blankets which you inspired me to do and I am learning how to make money selling my craft. I am currently working on a sunflower granny square tote bag and a mushroom tote bag. I love this community and the endless possibilities. If you all need a grounding hobby or something to give your hands something to do I highly recommend this instead of knitting since crocheting is much easier to pick up.

i very recently started crocheting (which is to say, about five hours ago) and i had looked up some tips and tricks and stuff and i can say that these all make a lot of sense. i’m using a 3mm hook and yarn for that size, so a bit on the small side, but it’s working pretty fine. right now i’m making tiny little scarves for stuffed animals. i can imagine this is gonna be a new hyperfixation for me… wish me luck!!
