Quick answers to the most common questions about the site, the content, and how everything works.
What is Crochetist.com?
Crochetist.com is a crochet resource site run by Debbie Harmon. I share pattern guides, honest skill ratings, yarn recommendations, and tips for crocheters at every level — with a focus on projects that are actually doable with yarn you can find at Walmart or Joann.
Are the patterns on this site free?
Yes. Everything on Crochetist.com is free to read and use. No signup, no paywall, no email required.
Do I need an account to access anything?
No. Just browse and use whatever’s helpful.
Can I sell items I make using your guides?
Yes, you’re welcome to sell finished items. Please don’t copy or republish the written content from this site.
What skill levels do you cover?
Most content is aimed at beginners and confident beginners, though some intermediate projects are included. Each guide includes an honest skill rating so you know what you’re getting into before you start.
What yarn brands do you recommend?
I mostly work with Red Heart, Lion Brand, Bernat, and Caron — widely available brands you can find at most craft stores across the U.S. I’ll always note if a project requires something specialty.
Where can I follow Crochetist?
You can follow along on Pinterest for pattern inspiration and project ideas.
How do I contact you?
