Crochet Tips and Tricks with Lily with Lily Chin
![]() Find out how to work a foundation chain that is not too tight (see photo). Join a new skein of yarn or a new color with losing the first stitch. See ways of attaching buttons as you work your fabric. Create invisible circular joins where the beginning and end are absolutely imperceptible. Weave in the ends that are too short to put through a darning needle. There is so much to take away including lots of small 'fix-its' and details. Supplies
__Smooth, classic, worsted-weight yarn in a few light colors and appropriate hook plus a few sizes small and a few sizes larger__4" of waxed dental floss __A shank button __At least 12" of a smooth worsted yarn (cotton is preferable) in a light color __12" of white sewing elastic about 1/2" wide __Magic marker __Crochet Basics: Sharp scissors, Notebook, Pen or pencil with eraser, Stitch markers, Tapestry needles (large and small), Tape measure, Small calculator, Crochet hooks of various sizes Homework
