Researching Crochet Abbreviations and Definitions - Crochet Tip #61

What are some crochet terms and definitions that you need help understanding?

You will find pattern authors that have their own terms and abbreviations. You may be new to crochet and not understand any of the language. We are global crocheters, so some terms will be different around the world, depending on the country you are in. When you stumble across something that you do not understand, I always recommend you ask the pattern author first, since they are the best resource. Sometimes it is difficult to reach the author, so you must do alternative research. That will be posting on different message forums exposing your question to a variety of people. There is usually someone who will be able to answer the question.

I am including a link to a chart, with many of the common crochet terms.

LANÇAMENTO 2010 - CACHECOL PAVÃO

Em homenagem ao clã dos Pavões, é claro !.... ☺

Fiz em barbante e lã.

Demorei uns 5 dias pra fazer, pois tenho 2 bolsas nas Agulhas e fico me dividindo com vários trabalhos, além da casa e dos meus Afilhotes, mas gostei do resultado, e você?
