Ten Great YouTube Channels for Crochet Tutorials

The rise in popularity of crochet is undeniable, fueled in part by the need to stave off boredom during the lockdown. Crochet is appealing because it supports sustainable fashion, reusable home decor, and the replacement of household aids like potholders and scrubbies. As the popularity of crochet among the newer generation excels, so do searches for patterns and tutorials on the web. This article helps the search with ten of the best YouTube channels where you can learn as you crochet along to create exciting designs.

No Longer An Old Folk’s Game

The traditional image of a crocheter is of a kindly, grandparent-type sitting in a comfy chair surrounded by cats, who are busy tangling yarn. As of 2023, the proof is undeniable that the stereotype no longer dominates the crochet world. Crochet Penguin reports that 73% of adults aged 18-34 search online for crochet-related sites. Let’s save search time by cutting to the chase with these ten exceptional YouTube crochet tutorial channels.

Bella Coco

Have you ever found a crochet pattern you love but were unfamiliar with UK crochet terms? Bella Coco’s YouTube channel will guide you through UK stitches with its beginner’s course. Once you have the basics down, you can go to step-by-step pattern tutorials for many fashion items for all seasons. Granny squares are trending, and Coco Bella has a dedicated section for this category. The channel even supports lefties. This is a good spot to pick up on UK terms with some interesting projects that are easy to follow.

The Crochet Crowd

I’ve been following The Crochet Crowd for some time now. The host, Mikey, has an energetic but not over-the-top demeanor and is a credible crochet source. Some of his videos are tutorials for the yarn kits he sells at Yarnspirations. The Crochet Crowd Channel offers stitch-alongs, alphabet tutorials, “The Stitch Is Right,” and a variety of projects to choose from. It’s a fun space to explore new dimensions in crochet. This channel boasts over 6,000 videos to have fun with.

Hooked by Robin is a modest site with high-quality projects. The site categories feature projects for absolute beginners, granny squares, amigurumi, joining techniques and more. While at the time of the last visit, the oldest post was four months old, there are currently 279 cute, vibrant, beautiful or interesting projects to sink your hook into.

There are a variety of projects to choose from in various colors. There is a section for beginner tutorials, and categories for shawls, afghans, lacy crochet stitches and more.

Love Life Yarn

Amanda Saladin is a high school teacher and professional crochet designer who’s had 80 designs published in various publications. Her video channel features many unique designs to learn, including socks, baby items and a gambit of popular crochet favorites. One video that was intriguing featured Amanda discussing a submissions course that would teach designers how to get their patterns published. The disappointing part was that the link to find out more about the course was not valid. This does not mean it’s not worth diving into the tutorials and crochet projects offered.

Knit and Crochet Ever After
