Crochet Skill Building

Crochet more, better, faster and with fewer mistakes!

How many crochet levels are there?

There are only 4 universal levels in the crochet world - that's it.

Each level is categorized by specific crochet actions and application.

What is your crochet skill level?

I'll give you a hint...

It's not based on the number of projects you've completed or how long you've been crocheting!

"I finished the course and even though I knew how to crochet before the course I learned technical things I did not know. I was a self learner. Loved the course!"

- Liz, ACA Student

What's the difference between my skill level, and a pattern level?

Crochet patterns are assigned a skill (difficulty) level based on the crochet actions and applications you'll be asked to execute.

Understanding how to read these within a crochet pattern, and assessing your own skill, will help you to accomplish crochet designs you might not think you're capable of...

"Finished this week and printed today! It was a great Course overall."
