Welcome to the magical world of crochet! If you’ve ever wondered how to start crocheting, you’re in the right place. Crochet is a wonderfully relaxing and rewarding craft, perfect for creating everything from cosy blankets to cute amigurumi toys.

To kick things off, you’ll need to learn the basic stitches that form the building blocks of every crochet project. Pop over to our stitch library to master the essentials, like the chain stitch, single crochet, and double crochet. And don’t forget to check out our step-by-step guide on how to tie a slip knot—it’s the very first step to beginning any crochet adventure!

Ready to take your skills to the next level? Our beginner-friendly guidebooks, Crochet Made Easy and Granny Squares Made Easy are here to help. Packed with expert tips, clear instructions, and simple projects, they're the perfect resource for anyone starting their crochet journey. Whether you’re dreaming of making your first scarf or a cute granny square, these books will have you crocheting with confidence in no time.

There are two main types of crocheters. Some love creating adorable amigurumi (those tiny, stuffed creatures that are impossible to resist), while others prefer crafting clothing, blankets, and homeware. If amigurumi is your jam, our Situation-Kits are a great way to begin. Each kit has a guided pattern, all the yarn you need, a correct sized hook and few added extras!

For those who fancy making wearables or cosy blankets, explore our collection of clothing patterns to find your next project. Whatever you choose, crochet is a craft full of creativity, joy, and endless possibilities.

When it comes to crochet, having the right yarn and tools makes all the difference. For beginners, we recommend starting with a soft, easy-to-work-with yarn like those in our Yarn Collection. Pair it with a beginner-friendly hook set, such as our Crochet Society Bumper Crochet Hooks and Essential Tools Starter Kit, which has everything you need to get going. If you're looking for a thoughtful gift or a complete starter bundle, our Gift for a Beginner Starter Bundle is perfect for new crocheters. And for those who want a stylish and practical set, our Designer Polymer Crochet Hook Set and Pop-Up Case is a must-have. With the right supplies, you’ll be ready to create your first masterpiece in no time!
