Although I learned how to crochet when I was eight-years old, it’s something I didn’t actively do until at the end of last year. One of the ladies, from my quilting group, showed me several stitches, but she went so fast…. it didn’t stick.
Upon arriving home I logged onto YouTube and discovered YouTube user Geek Crochet, she also uses the name Crochet. What’s great about her videos is part of them are done in slow motion, which is perfect for those who might need to see the stitch done at a slower place.
I’ve included the videos in comments now and again, but I’ve decided to dedicate an entire post to her videos. Check out and enjoy!

@Kate Brown Wilson, You’re welcome, and I urge you to try it, it took me a while to figure out a hand position tha worked for myself, and so the first few weeks was a bit awkward, fast forward to now, and I don’t have to think about my hand position, or concentrate on each stitch, my hands just do what comes naturally. 🙂
