Episode of Series “A Joy for Life”.
Crochet is a soothing, rhythmic craft, practised throughout the world for thousands of years - using only a hook and a length of thread. This video and its accompanying booklet will show you how to begin, the materials you need, how to work some basic stitches; as well as some attractive items which are easy to make. Introduced by Hannah Gordon.
