Although I have only group taught crochet a few times, I belong to a local crochet and knit group run by my friend Bonnie where I regularly teach crochet one-on-one to anyone interested.
My tutees single crochet (sc) a hot pad, a headband or a scarf then they start learning additional stitches (sts). But every once in a while I come across a Roxana. You know, the kid in the front row who always raises her hand, always has the right answer, and always makes her school project an elaborate production.
Roxana recently joined our group and asked if I would show her how to crochet. The next week Roxana was back with her giant scarf in tow wanting to know how to make a sweater.
A sweater! Can a sweater be made if you only know how to chain (ch) and sc? Before you decide this “Learn It! Do It!” is a quiz, I’ll just give you the answer. Of course it can! In fact, there is actually very little difference in making a scarf and making a boxy drop shoulder sweater.
Let’s take the One Cable Wonder sweater found on page 16 and give it a try. Even though that pattern isn’t designed for someone who learned to crochet last week, the pattern can be used to make a lovely beginner sweater.
