Tips for my basic crochet patterns

For the free crochet patterns, for women, a little explanation. How to read the patterns ?
No two crocheters crochet alike. The pattern writer does not crochet exactly as you do!
The only way to guarantee the fit is to check your gauge.
Crochet a tension swatch and measure the stitches and rows by 10 cm. Then look for a free crochet pattern, that fits the most.
Remember: Use whatever size hook will give you the correct gauge regardless of the size specified in the free crochet pattern!

If you crochet through both loops in every stitch, you will have a stiff garment, not so stretchable.
If you crochet only through the back loop of every stitch, your garment will be more stretchable and will look more as knitcrochet.
It will have a better drape, and better fit.

In a free crochet pattern with single crochets, you can divide most of the time, the number of rows by 2, to get double crochets,
the other way around, from double crochets to single crochets, multiply the number of rows by 2.

Use a wide variety of fun and funky yarns, fuzzy-wuzzy of glamorous silver-and-gold eyelash yarn or cotton.
