If you’re not familiar with Crochet 911, you should be. If you have a question about a crochet technique, abbreviation, etc. the answer is likely to be found at Crochet 911. It’s worth your time, I believe, to read through the site and bookmark it for future reference. You never know when you might need some of the information stored there. There’s also a Knit 911 at the same site, should you need those resources. Click here to find your way there.
One of the most useful things you’ll find at the site is their very clear drawings used to illustrate the text. Sometimes drawings are more valuable than actual photographs because of the way drawings can be manipulated to show off key points. In this very straightforward example, the drawing clearly demonstrates the difference in height of various stitches relative to the turning chain.
The site also offers links to other valuable resources. The Craft Yarn Council, a leader in standardizing terminology and training in the art of crochet, authors this site. Please be sure to bookmark it for further reference.
