How is the absolute best way to learn crochet and absorb [ record ], the most valuable knowledge possible? 1. I want to know and be able to identify the seven basic stitches, to use them with different hook and yarn or thread sizes, and record these sizes. 2. I like all the texture stitches resulting from using the three top loops of the stitches each single or in variety. There is much more than rib or ribbing. 3. I like the variety in front and back post stitches and that called basket weave. 4. Mesh alone or mesh between mesh in two colors is amazing. 5. Crochet in rounds, as doilies, dishcloths, granny squares, and such. There is just so much to crochet. I mean for the interested crocheter personally, I have made my own books, also made books out of purchased published books, all for collecting the crochet knowledge I want. How do other do it?

What's the best book to learn this kind of Crochet? I'd like to make a basic hand towel size piece, the crocheted holes (not sure what that's called) with scalloped edges around all sides. I've had a square version as a blanket since I was a baby. I have chronic pain & during flare ups I find the soothing motions of my fingers winding in and out of the holes of the soft yarn takes my mind off the pain. The first one disintergrated, my mother made another with the holes a little larger for my now adult fingers. My cats however, have taken over this one & my husband definately doesn't fancy it's size. My husband's biological mother crochets, but I would rather learn to make it myself (after all people move, and face it, the die too I need to know how to do this). I've heard of the Stitch and B*tch books, but not sure I want to go beyond beginning stage - I already have way too many crafts & spend time on (& money too) - I don't know where I'd find time if I started another hobby. Thanks! I'm definately a visual learner, I'm good at following patterns and I do see the world in pictures. Yes I think that's what I've heard it called before, a giant granny square - it was made as my baby blanket originally (the one the disintergrated) and my mother made another but it's too big and the cats have claimed ownership. A towel size would be fine for it's purpose - I can toss it in my nightstand and not feel embarrased when company comes over and sees a 'baby blanket' on my side of the bed (hard to explain to those that don't 'get it' yanno?)
