Crochet Basics - Joining the Yarn to The Hook

"If you want to learn to crochet, the very first skill you need to learn is how to attach the yarn to the hook. You won't be able to work a single stitch if you do not have this skill. It is very easy to learn and there are lots of ways to do it. I cover a few of my favorite ways in this tutorial for absolute beginners. Grab your worsted, medium weight (size 4) yarn and a size H8 or I9 crochet hook and let's get started!"
