The love of history, and the ever revolving fashion cycle have helped to renew popularity of this 19th century handcraft. Not to mention the quality for experienced crochet hobbyist comes out looking better than anything you could buy in the department store.
I ended up at Wal-mart late at night browsing through the craft aisles and inevitably drawn to all the cool yarns. There are so many great wools and threads to choose from, you can make anything you want. Crochet is not that difficult once you get the hang of it.
Books aren't the only place to find these types of baby blanket patterns. If you are just getting into crochet and you are in need of lessons and stitching methods you can also learn the hobby without having to pay for a book. For a beginner, you will want to stay away from using the fuzzy and fur yarns.
It is great to be able to make items for yourself and as gifts for family and friends. Just like any craft, you have to enjoy it and truly have a passion for it to produce great works of yarn art.
