Crocheting is one great hobby to have, especially when you have all the resources you need to enjoy it. There are numerous crochet patterns you can get from anywhere online. And these patterns are for free as well.

What about the people who don’t have Internet access? Would this mean that they would not be able to enjoy crocheting as much as people who have Internet access?

Not necessarily! Remember that the advent of Internet technology came about decades after books existed in our society. So, if you’re looking for crochet pattern books, you can be sure that they exist in libraries all over the world!

These crochet pattern books may be a bit old-fashioned, when you compare them to the online sites that feature crochet patterns as well. But this does not have to matter at all. These crochet pattern books are still able to serve their purpose, which is to give instructional materials to crochet enthusiasts. And it’s not as if these crochet pattern books don’t come with quality illustrations, to make the instructions clearer for the reader. Let’s face it: we love books with clear-cut illustrations. There may be times when these illustrations are not needed. But crochet pattern books just drive the point way better with such illustrations. There are even some crochet pattern books that come with the required yarn and hook for the pattern to be completed! Now, where would you find that on online sites? Well, you could find that as well. But the materials come with crochet pattern books free of charge. Online sites usually charge extra for these materials. Now, crochet pattern books are clearly at an advantage here.

And when you purchase these crochet pattern books, you get patterns that you can experiment on right away! With online sites, you would have to purchase access to these patterns before you get to use them. And when you do purchase patterns online, they come individually. So, you have to buy patterns over and over again. With crochet pattern books, you get numerous patterns right off the bat! True, you will very well run out of patterns to make. But you won’t run out of crochet pattern books ever.

Yes, crochet pattern books are still huge in the crocheting industry. And there are also a lot of crochet enthusiasts who prefer these to the numerous online sites worldwide. So, these crochet pattern books are clearly not a thing of the past. It all depends on the preferences of crochet enthusiasts. And this is what’s important in such a hobby.
