Hi! My name is Rhondda and I am the Designer and Blogger at Oombawka Design. Oombawka Design is a crochet website offering free crochet patterns, tutorials, reviews, link parties and giveaways.

On Thursdays, Amy (from The Stitchin' Mommy) and I take turns hosting a Let's Learn a New Crochet Stitch event. We share a new crochet pattern stitch and a photo tutorial to help you master the stitch; instructions are also included to complete an eight inch square block - for use as an afghan square, or a dishcloth. Here is a round-up of ten of the Let's Learn a New Crochet Stitch Tutorials. Click on the picture to be taken through to the tutorial. The instructions are written in U.S. crochet terms and include many photographs to help you understand how to make the pattern stitches.

I invite you to join us each week as we share a new crochet stitch pattern. To receive an email when the post goes live you can sign up for our Let's Learn a New Crochet Stitch Weekly Newsletter. This newsletter is only sent out for the Let's Learn a New Crochet Stitch Event each week. If you have a suggestion for a future crochet pattern stitch you would like to see, we also take requests! So feel free to contact one of us, to let us know!

I currently have more than 100 original free crochet patterns available on my website. Every Friday is Free Crochet Pattern Friday and you will find a round up of at least 20 free crochet patterns based on a specific theme.
