    you truly are one of the best crochet teachers out there, you voice, your technique, the camera angles, the clarity of the camera, the clarity of your voice, your instructions are very clear. Thank you for doing these videos. I'd love to see some pieces done by you like the "little black dress" in the crochet book called Crochet That Fits by MaryJane Perry Hall or something like that.
    thanks again

    Oooh, so pretty!
    Regarding the post on how the stereotype of the old lady crocheting got started, well...think about it. What was there to make at first except shawls and scarves? People who still think like this don't realize what's out there now. I just bookmarked a page to make a Sonic the Hedgehog toy someday! Granny would never have imagined such a thing, LOL!

    Is it difficult to get permission from an author to use their pattern in one of your videos? I would think that one of the yarn companies (e.g. Lion Brand, etc.) would be tickled to have you do a video featuring one of their patterns.

Extended or Long Double Crochet - This is where you will work a double crochet several stitches below the row you are on. You will need to pull up on the stitch and allow for some additional yarn, so the stitch does not sag.

Multiple: 4
You will add 4 chains for each segment of the pattern stitch that you want to add to the width.

Example: If you want to make a baby afghan with a size I/5.5mm crochet hook, 4-ply yarn, you will chain 108. This will give you an estimated width of 34 inches.

Ch 31
Row 1: DC in 3rd CH from hook, DC in next CH, *CH 1, SK 1 CH, 1 DC in EA of next 3 CH. Continue across from * for width of pattern.

Row 2: CH 3, 1 DC in EA of next 2 DC, *CH 1, SK CH, 1 DC in EA of next 3 DC. Continue acr…
