    Hello everyone. I signed up today because I would like to learn how to crochet. I have never done it before and would like any information on where I should start, what to buy and anything else you can think of. I am looking for a new hobby and thought this would be a nice start. Thank you. Cristi

    Hi christi, Welcome here! You are at the right spot to get ideas and learn techniques. Some of us (incuding me) are quite knowledgeable when it comes to crochet techniques and patterns so we might be able to help when you need it. Barbara (one of the most resourceful members of the forum) posted links about beginner crochet. I will just quickly go check it out then get back to you to indicate how to find them here on crochet talk!

    Me again...so here it is: forum---main category---links and resources---crochet tips for beginners. That link might also be useful for you if you are just starting out: Video: How to Crochet | eHow.com
    Something else that you could do is just look up for "how to crochet" on google or any other search engine you use.

    DesertPrincess,

    Where abouts in Arizona are you? There is a crochet group that meets in Phoenix on the 2nd Saturday of each month that always welcomes new members regardless of their crochet experience. You would be more than welcome to join us!
