Crochet for Beginners: How to Make a Double Crochet
👋 WELCOME to YARN MOSAICS' CROCHET FOR BEGINNERS WORKSHOP!
In this video, we will guide you through the essential basics of crochet, including:
☑️ How to double crochet, and
✅ What the term "frog" means relative to crochet.
Whether you're picking up a crochet hook for the first time or need a quick refresher, this step-by-step guide will have you creating beautiful crochet pieces in no time!
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN IN THIS TUTORIAL
👩‍💻 How to Double Crochet: Master the double crochet stitch, a very commonly used crochet stitch that is the next size up in stitch height from the half-double crochet. It is a fundamental technique used in countless crochet patterns.
🐸 What does it mean to frog your work? Be sure to listen for the cute anecdote and explanation toward the end of this video.
WHY CROCHET?
Crocheting is a relaxing and rewarding hobby that allows you to create everything from cozy blankets to stylish accessories. It's perfect for anyone looking to express their creativity and unwind.
Crochet's repetitive nature helps improve focus 🧐, which in turn slows your nervous system, reduces the release of cortisol (stress hormone) 🤬, and increases levels of dopamine (happiness) 😃 and serotonin (relaxation) 😴, and we all can use more of that in our lives!
WHO IS THIS VIDEO FOR?
- Absolute beginners who want to learn how to crochet from scratch.
- Crafters looking to revisit the basics of crochet.
- Anyone interested in starting a new and fulfilling hobby.
Materials Needed: A crochet hook, yarn, scissors, and a little bit of patience and creativity!

    Hi, I have not Excel on my laptop, Usually I use it on my Drive. Will your program work with it as well? Thank you in advance. Nadia

    I just spent money on two of these downloads because I was confused about 0:18 which program it was...and neither of them is working as shown in the video. Putting an x in the box does not add the three rows, the grid is huge and confusing. I dunno. I wish I would have saved my money. Perhaps you have to use this on a PC? If so, maybe you could make that more clear?

    Edit: I just saw your newer videos with the program updates! It's so cool, will buy now. Interesting, I've seen others where you draw the design and then the program adds the x, I am not sure how easy it would be to design if you start by thinking on the x placements... I would still love to try it. Wondering as well how the most complex patterns with slanted dc are created...
