I found a website for beginners to crocheting. It looks like the best place to start is to use yarn and pony beads to get the hang of crocheting so my plan for next week is to collect these supplies and make a basic bracelet. I will need a skein of yarn, pony beads, a tapestry needle and a size 5 mm crochet hook.
So this week was about researching how to crochet. I was very overwhelmed by the volume of information. You can crochet so many different things from clothing items to jewelry. I found patterns for scarves, headbands, cell phone cases and even coffee cozies. These I will keep in mind for after I learn how to make the Jingle Bell Necklace. I began by narrowing my search to jewelry but that still provided to be an overabundance of information so I further narrowed it to just necklaces with beads. This was a manageable amount of information to sort through. The choices I make will be specific to the Jingle Bell Necklace I want to reproduce so for now I will focus on learning the basics of crocheting and then look further into the materials I need for that specific necklace.

It sounds like the choices you make with the four points you listed really define how the necklace will turn out. I am not sure how they all connect, but it sounds complicated. Are you proficient with chopsticks? That is my only point of reference for crocheting at this stage. Looking forward to seeing your progress with crocheting, Staci. :)
