No problem! I recommend you try starting with a regular granny square because they are so easy to learn to make. They are very easy for beginners and you can stitch em together to make blankets small and large or you can make shoulder bags or many things to make with them. Just search the web for all the uses for em. Then you can work up to more advanced techniques. Can you tell I'm totally "hooked" on crochet?! =0)

block them. when I see people do that on mine or others I block them.

This is a nice hook. I have never used one before but it looks fun to use. I only know one stitch LOL that was taught to me years ago by a older lady so I'm trying to expand my horizons LOL.

I've crocheted for a long time, and have never seen a hook like this, do they still sell them? Would be interesting to try my hand at it.

I think the brand is still around, but I think this hook is probably from the 60's or 70's. It was my great-grandmother's.

This is for crocheting an afghan stitch. Really useful because of the length. When you crochet with an afghan stitch you can then do needlepoint/cross stitch over it to create a picture on top of it. Many, many possibilities. Great find. BTW, I taught myself to crochet from books after many years of thinking it was too hard. Now I have to make up for lost time! It was easier than I could have thought possible!!!! And there are many tutorials online to get free instruction. Check out youtube.
