Question
FirstFed
Hi everybody!
I just decided to learn how to crochet due to a spectacular winter we're having here in Antarctica...I mean New Jersey....and am losing my mind from being trapped inside. A few of my co workers are into crocheting and I've been watching them create adorable things for themselves (they're both expecting), and thought it would be a great thing to pick up to keep myself sane and keep my hands busy during this horrible winter!
I bought a book on Amazon called The happy Hooker as a beginner crochet book, which is extremely helpful. I'm going to make a trip to the craft store this weekend and was wondering if I could get any insight from anyone on what I should buy for my first trip. Is there any preference from anyone what type of hooks I should buy right off the bat, sizes to learn the best with, the best yarn to learn with and what to use? Any information would be greatly appreciated so that I have an idea of what I should be looking for when I go in there.
Thank you in advance and I look forward to learning to crochet and being a part of this forum!!!
