My patterns are written with the intermediate crocheter in mind. However, I believe that an adventurous beginner who likes a creative challenge would fair reasonably well with most of them. However, this largely depends on what you are looking for in your stitching time and your willingness to use online resources to self-teach gaps in your knowledge of crochet basics. If you prefer more repetitive/meditative patterns, mine may not be for you. But if you like to construct, experiment and conjure up magic with yarn- I got you! I encourage you to always play at crochet, challenge yourself and try those aspirational projects- you can always come back to them in a month or ten as you grow as a crafter! But, ultimately, only you know your own capabilities and what you are looking for in your crochet time. Please Note: All of my pattern listings clearly state that you will need to know basic crochet stitches and concepts such as inc/dec, using magic rings, reading a chart/diagram using a key and working from your own measurements. Please read individual pattern listings and be honest with yourself about your abilities. I love helping people with specific pattern-related questions and helping my customers make something magical using my patterns! However, I market my patterns as intermediate level for a reason and I do not factor the time it takes to create tailor-made 'how to crochet' tutorials for novice crafters into my workload.
