I think it's a common mistake to choose any hook and yarn without thinking about it. Good point. There's a lot to learn if you want to crochet right. 👍
I find it very difficult to close the circle of a magic ring, but very easy to close a slip knot which has been chained and joined to create a ring. I don't know what I'm doing wrong in closing the circle of a magic ring, if you can help. Thank you.
I’m lefthanded,and there is no way I could hold my hook in the right hand. But it’s not a problem. I watch right hand videos all the time, don’t have to flip the videos or anything. I can just watch what the right handed person is doing, and do the same with my left. Maybe in the very very beginning, this was hard, but there are many videos of basic stitches and that stuff that is made for lefthanded. To tell someone who is lefthanded that you should crochet with the right hand will probably set them back even more.

I never thought about the left- and right-hand differences. Great points. 👍

I did a video on this. I hope this helps.

You were right, but that's not what I was saying. I was telling people that's what I did and it was the wrong way to learn. 😀
what's wrong with using cotton yarn for blankets?
nothing as far as ik. wish they were more specific about why these mistakes aren't "good"
Most people think that cotton gets too heavy for blankets, so I felt it was best to steer beginners away from it.
