I wanted to create a crochet project that would be easy for beginners to try with pull-up stitches, so I crocheted a cowl. This project uses the double crochet pull-up stitch, which is the most common pull-up stitch. There are two types of pull-up stitches: pull-up stitch and reverse pull-up stitch.

I already have a page explaining how to crochet a "stretchy cast-on" for right-handed people, and now I've added a version for left-handed people. I've never held a crochet hook with my left hand, so I apologize if the video is a bit awkward! This crochet technique also focuses on where you insert the needle into the stitch, so please refer to the video for instructions on how to insert the needle from the second stitch onwards.

Transform into Santa Claus this Christmas with a crocheted hat! This is a crocheted cap inspired by Santa Claus's hat. I always feel like crocheting something when Christmas approaches. This one is crocheted in adult size, but I've put it in the "Kids" category, imagining it being used for a child to dress up as Santa Claus...

Crocheted Rosette Brooch I tried making a rosette-like brooch using crochet. The word "rosette" apparently comes from the word for the shape of a rose flower. This piece was also inspired by medals made of pleated ribbon in the shape of petals. Rosettes are also popular as happy items for weddings and parties...

A crocheted puppet perfect for cooking and playtime! I've crocheted a puppet that you can put your hand inside and play with. It's a small, round-faced bear puppet. The thumb side is split, so you can make its mouth open and close, pretending it's taking bites of pretend food! If you crochet some lunchbox items, you can even play lunchtime...
