The crochet tips I would like to pass along today are more generalin nature and may be helpful to you as you learn more about crochetand begin doing more projects.
* Using a tapestry needle or any large needle with a large eye is amuch better way to weave in the loose ends on a finished project.
* You can use a safety pin to hold a stitch in place before youstore a project away that is not yet completed.
* A tooth brush case (like the kind you get for traveling) makes anice crochet hook holder for traveling as well.
* To keep loose ends from coming out, reverse the direction of thestitch after you weave in your first few stitches.
* You can use empty prescription bottles to help organize yoursmall supplies like beads and needles.
* When following a pattern, a Post-It note works great to stick onthe line you were working from when you put the pattern away.
* Keep an unfinished crochet project in a bag and ready-to-go. Thatway you can be prepared for any of those last-minute trips.
* Start your work from the strand of yarn from the center of theskein to help keep the yarn from rolling around while you work.
* Roll your leftover yarn into balls for easy storage and to keepthem from getting tangled.
* A small fishing tackle box makes a great 'crochet kit' withcompartments for all your crochet supplies.
This is just a small sampling of simple crochet tips. You can findmany more on the Internet if you go to a search engine like Googleor Yahoo! and search for "crochet tips." Best Regards,
