If you know how to crochet and want to introduce your friends and family to the wonderful world of yarn crafting, or you are looking for a simple way in yourself, pick up Creative Publishing International's Learn to Crochet Kit and watch as you and your friends find another fun interest. Packed with the essentials, this kit includes a 32-page instructional booklet, a size H/8 crochet hook, four balls of yarn, and a yarn needle.

This kit is all about the basics, and the booklet teaches you how to make a classic beginner's project: a scarf. With full-color instructions to keep you focused, the booklet's author, Deborah Burger, takes you step by step through the process. She teaches you basic crochet stitches, diagrams, abbreviations, and symbols so that when you are finished with the kit, you can take what you learned and apply it to other patterns.

While there is enough yarn to make the scarf, there is not enough for the other projects in the booklet. Keep that in mind before you begin so that you aren't stuck with a half-finished project and no more of that same color! As long as you remember this, the booklet will come in handy long after you've run out of the yarn included in this kit. The best part of this kit is that it doesn't start you with yarn that you won't like. In fact, this yarn is super soft and easy to work with, so even if you make mistakes in your pattern, you can count on your yarn looking great.
