Learn to Crochet

Kris Perry is nuts. There, I said it. This woman may know a ton about crochet, but she has no clue about business. To practically give this information away is criminal. Forget about the book she's selling on crochet, which is an amazing value in itself. Kris actually gives away a free 5 day mini course on crocheting to see if it's something that's right for you.

Now, having said that, if you want to take full advantage of what Kris has to offer, you'll want to get her book. Why? Well, let me tell you exactly what's in it. Yes, I am going to spill all the beans right here so you'll know what you're getting BEFORE you even get to her site. I'm that convinced you'll STILL want to pick this book up.

If you're interested in history, she goes over the history of crochet. If not, it's still interesting reading.

She then goes into the equipment itself, what kind of hooks to use for what. What kind of yarn to use for what. All in explicit detail so there is literally no thought involved on your part.

She then goes over basic crocheting such as single crochet. She starts with the easy stuff and then works her way to the more advanced topics. My gut tells me that she's a teacher or something because her instruction is excellent.

She then goes over different types of stitches such as slip stitch, half double crochet, double crochet, and treble crochet. I don't think there is one stitch that she's left out.

She shows you how to deal with the various problems that you're going to run into such as missed stitches, uneven edges and even how to change your yarn mid stream. If there is a problem you can run into, Kris covers it.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg. Look, I can run off at the mouth for another 10 pages on all the great tips and tricks that Kris has in her book. So just go to her site and see for yourself.
