Magic Circle Thing a Ma-Jig
I am a beginner and I'm trying to get my stitching and patterns down before I start making actual pieces. But I feel like all my stitches are too tight and I can seem to keep count bc everything becomes tight after the double crochets. How can I keep my stitching loose. I've order supplies like the finger ring to hold the yarn and better needles. I honestly think it's the way I am holding the needle and yarn. HELP!!!

Need advice on fixing mistakes
Hi everyone, I'm working on a crochet project and I just realized I made a mistake a few rows back. I'm not sure how to fix it without unraveling a lot of my work. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix mistakes in crochet projects? I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks,

Making mistakes
Hey everyone, I've noticed recently I've made a lot of mistakes in my crochet. I annoys me and it seems as though there isn't anything I can do. I find myself messing up stitches, skipping steps, and even doing the wrong thing! Has this happened to any of you before? Let me know!

Difficulty
Hello all, I've run into a problem when choosing what to make. I find it that's some patterns labeled as "easy" are much harder in reality, and some labeled as "intermediate" are actually very simple. How do you guys tell when a pattern is truly easy, or when it is truly difficult? Thanks!

help with technique
hi everyone, i noticed something strange with me recently. I stopped crafting for a about a week due to family issues. just yesterday, i tried again and it's like i've never crocheted before. Has this happened to anyone before? I think it's got something to do with my muscle memory, but i've been crochetting for so long!!!! please help!

Hi everyone I've a big problem when making clothes! I can't ever get the right size!! Every time i make any clothes they end up too big or too small. I can't get it just right!! I'd love for some more experienced crocheters to tell me how its done! If theres a You-Tube tutorial y'all can show me, I'd be very appreciative Thanks, Eva

Crochet Needles!!
Hey y'all! I've been a little unmotivated recently, and that's because a week ago my favorite crochet needles snapped! This is the second time it's happened with these needles, as I keep buying the same ones. I need a recommendation for some needles that can last me at least a few months. I cant keep buying needles!!! Thanks, Lyla!
