Wal-Mart sells a learn how kit for under $ 12. It comes with hook, book, stitch markers, etc. You will need to buy your own yarn. Actually any good how to book will give you directions. Pick out a project, get the proper size hook and yarn and off you go. Good Luck.

There is an interactive CD-ROM called Crochet Made Easy developed by the super cool folks at Coats and Clark and Red Heart Yarns. It goes over all the basics with very easy to follow written, audio, and video instructions. It also has instructions for several different types of projects. I got mine at Wal-mart for about 7 bucks.

The pattern repeats every 13 stitches. So chain number of patt repeats you want times 13. Then add 4 more chain sts.

after you have joined with a slip stitch,you chain 1, then you do a single crochet around the chain 10 loop ,then you do 23 more in the same manner. what this does is cover the chain to give it more stability. then you slip stitch in the first chain 1 to complete the round.ok, next round., chain 1, (*) this symbol simply means (repeat)now single crochet in the single crochet,chain 4, skip the next 2 single crochets and this is where you start the repeat by doing a single crochet in the next sc. ,then chain 4 skip the next 2 sc and repeat from * to the end of the round. I hope this helps, I think you would have a better understanding if you got a “how to book” from the library where there is a large selection or a book store. I found it is easier if you have a picture in front of you to compare your st. with . good luck

I dont have the book, nor seen the afghan, but I think going with a bright variegated yarn for the main color and black as a contrasting color would work.

The Hello Kitty character is a copyrighted Japanese character. No one has produced a crochet pattern in English. But sometimes you can find someone through a Google search that has made something close. Look for Kitty items, you’d be suprised what you’ll find.I have seen pictures from the “official” crochet Japanese books and besides the text being in Japanese, all the instructions are done in symbol crochet. That is, each stitch has a symbol. There ARE sites online that explain how to follow symbol crochet. Some of the US magazines for crochet even include this with their regular written instructions.The Japanese books have alot of pictures and I’ve heard of folks being able to follow the symbols and pictures to complete projects. Many have done this to make Amigurumi, which is crocheted animals. I haven’t done this myself, but I’d like to try.Also from what I’ve heard, the original Hello Kitty crochet book is out of print, so you have to find a used copy. But I’ve seen other variations from the original. I hope I’ve helped a little.Best wishes!

If you mean copying patterns for each other, that’s copyright infringement. Swapping/trading patterns can be hard to arrange because you have to find someone who both wants what you have and has something you want.Your public library has lots of crochet books, and can probably get even more for you through an interlibrary loan.There are thousands of free crochet patterns online. This site has compiled links to hundreds of them: http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com/directory.php

I don’t have the book and have not seen the pattern before but what I am wondering is this, are you trying to find a way to connect them together? Are you looking for an edging. e-mail me with this information and I {hopefully} will be able to help you. I have been into this {stuff} for many years so have some knowledge.
