How to Crochet Around Rocks Step by Step | Random Acts of Crochet Kindness

I was so inspired by Hooked by Robin's Video about Random Acts of Crochet Kindness that I wanted to participate here in the U.S as well. I live near the beach so I decided to make crochet rocks.
In this video you will find a step by step on how to design your own crochet rocks and then a pattern to show you the steps in action.
Even if you aren't interested in RAOCK, these stones make a great gift as paperweights, door stops or grouped together in a bowl.
You'll get addicted to making these!

A Fingering weight yarn would be a great introduction to working with a smaller hook and yarn if you aren't used to thread.

CROCHET US vs UK CROCHET

Chain (chn) is the same for both
