Elaine,

Thanks for checking in with us! Smile We don't have a specific date at this time.

Chris,

This is one of the best tutorials I've found, if you're not specifically looking for a video:
http://www.dummies.com/crafts/crocheting/how-to-carry-yarn-in-crochet/

I like the illustrations because they make the steps very clear!

It's not hard to strand in this manner and will give the piece a much more polished appearance when it's finished than if you cut the yarn and work the ends in later.  Sure, it's a bit more trouble, but worth it, IMO.  Though double crochet is shown in the illustrations, single crochet is the same thing, just with a shorter stitch, and you should be able to strand exactly the same way.  Smile

Debbie,

No problem...I don't have any way of knowing when links are no longer available, so your mention of it helps tremendously...thanks!  Kiss  I'll try to also update the original link.

LOL!  Well, maybe you could make them with...never mind, I got nothing.  Wink  Hopefully staring at them won't be too harmful...but I must have already gained 5 pounds from that.  Laughing

Debbie,

You're welcome!  The cowl tutorial is definitely a good stepping stone for other tutorials.  Kiss  Once people see how easy it is, I can't imagine they won't be able to figure out how to start designing their own...how exciting!  Kiss

Welcome!  Smile

How cool that you've not only been crocheting but are also teaching people to crochet, as well!  Smile  What's crocheting if it can't be shared?

What have you made?  Feel free to share your pics, so we can all drool!  Wink
