Because it was an afghan, I did not want there to be a wrong side, so I hid the vertical strands of yarn inside the first stitch in a new color after each color change. Although most crocheted colorwork relies…

BEGINNER These projects are for first-time crocheters and use basic stitches (chain, single crochet, double crochet, treble crochet, slip stitches, half double crochet), with little or no shaping. Beginner projects combine basic stitches in short pattern sequences and may require identifying back and front loops of stitches, the back bar of chains, and the right and wrong side of work. Skills include simple increasing and decreasing for each basic stitch as well as skipping stitches, working multiple stitches into one stitch and simple color changes. CONFIDENT BEGINNER These projects use basic stitches, repetitive stitch patterns and row repeats, more technical types of color changes, and easy shaping and finishing. Simple in-the-round projects, such as coasters, hot pads, flowers, hats, neck warmers and cowls fall within the Confident Beginner skill category,…
