If you’re wondering what you actually need to start crocheting, the answer is simpler than you might think. You don’t need a huge collection of crochet supplies or a craft room full of supplies.
For crochet beginners, start with these five basic supplies:
Yarn
A Crochet Hook
Scissors
Stitch Markers
Yarn Needles
That’s it! These are the essential tools to get you started and begin learning your first stitches.
My advice is, don’t wait until you have everything “perfect “. Grab your yarn and hook and start learning. You’ll build your skills and supplies as you need them.
