Does anyone crochet here?

I crochet & love it. It helps to relax me. I just got done making the United State Flag for my son. I got to start on a Rebel Flag now.
Does anyone have any good patterns or any good sites to go too?

I'm trying to learn.

I won a whole lot of yarn from ebay a while back.

I have several patterns, but am having a hard time with them, for example, turning on a row, working in rounds, etc.

Any tips you could give would be appreciated.

Working in rounds, I usually mark mine with another color of yarn so I know where it end, cause it's really hard to tell sometimes. Double crochet not to bad but single crochet is.

As for starting a new row you just change as many as you need dc is 3 chains sc is 1 chain & you start in the first stitch unless it said something different.

here is 2 sites to teach you to crochet.http://www.learntoknit.com/instructions_cr.php3

I can crochet, but I haven't done anything substantial. I can do single and double crochet and have done granny squares and a few other patterns. I count chains to turn mine. *L*

I learned from an old old old Red Heart Book. *L* I found it in a used bookstore. Coats and Clark have some good ones too.

Maybe I'll do something while pregnant, so I have a little project to finally post on here. *L*

So many things I want to fit in. *sigh*

Here are some crochet patterns:
