Learning how to crochet can be very frustrating but so wonderfully rewarding. You may mess around trying to hold the yarn or just feel utterly confused over all of the different stitches you are supposed to make. Your hands may ache, and perhaps your first couple projects will not be quite what you had in mind. That's all part of learning! Every mistake is new experience to improve your skills, and with every practice, you will find it becoming easier and more enjoyable. This feeling one may have while finishing the project well compensates for these initial sets of difficulties. Moreover, you will be left with beautiful pieces that you can either keep for yourself or give away.
To begin your crocheting journey, pick a comfortable spot to sit with good lighting. Have your yarn and hook at hand. If you’re unsure about where to start, try making a simple chain. This is the foundation of many crochet projects. If it does not come out right the very first time, that is perfectly okay; no expert in life wasn't once a beginner. Regular practice of these basic stitches, and you will be making all kinds of beautiful designs in no time. Keep in mind that crochet is for one's enjoyment; so relax and have fun creating something wonderful with your hands!
