This video is an all-encompassing tutorial that covers everything you need to know about micro crochet! Micro crochet is perfect for jewellery that's light enough to wear all day long, and it's a great small hobby that's easy to transport for crafting on the go!

In this video, I cover:
• tips for getting started
• what types of threads and hooks I use
• techniques you need to know (holding the thread, magic ring)
• and a full walk-through of how to make a mini granny square

You will need a basic understanding of crochet stitches for this tutorial. Some videos are linked down below if you’re new to crochet!

Please let me know if there's anything else you have questions about that I don't cover!

This is a very long and chatty video, so I have included chapters to jump to the sections you want to watch!
