I started to crochet about 4-5 years ago. But I’ve only known how to actually read a crochet pattern for a few months now.
I learnt to crochet on YouTube, following all the beginner tutorials I could find. Then i started with following along with the step by step tutorials on how to make easy beginner projects.
That went on for years but I STILL had NO idea at all how to read a crochet pattern.
Then I found Ribblr s few months ago and it seemed like a great place to learn to read patterns.
Of course it was, and so much more.
Where I am now, I feel like I’m just basically starting to really get how patterns work. But I definitely don’t feel like enough of an expert on them to try to write one
At least not yet. I can imagine sweaters in my mind, but the pattern writing thing is still beyond me atm.
