About

All About Crochet is a home for free crochet patterns, friendly tutorials and handmade inspiration. We believe everyone should be able to find a clearly written pattern — and the help to finish it — without paying or signing up.

Who runs this site

All About Crochet is run by Akram Afkir from Casablanca, Morocco, who is responsible for everything published here. The site's goal is simple: make crochet easier to start and to enjoy, with calm pages, clear instructions and honest information about what has — and hasn't — been tested yet.

Why this site exists

Too many crochet patterns online are hard to follow, buried under pop-ups or missing the details that make the difference between a finished project and a frustrating one. We want to offer the opposite: calm, well-organized pages, clear instructions with stitch counts, and tutorials that explain the why as well as the how.

How our patterns are made

Every pattern on All About Crochet is original and written for this site. We never copy, scrape or rewrite other designers' patterns.

Before a pattern is published, its stitch counts, repeats, measurements and materials are checked line by line, as described in our editorial policy. Every pattern page shows its testing status honestly: patterns that haven't yet been made from the written instructions are labeled Not yet tested, and the label is updated once they have been made.

What we care about

• Clarity — instructions that are easy to follow with a hook in one hand.
• Honesty — no invented reviews, testimonials, credentials or testing claims.
• Accessibility — readable, keyboard-friendly pages that work beautifully on a phone.
• Respect for designers — copyright matters to us, and we credit the people behind every design.

How the site is funded

All About Crochet is free to use. The site doesn't currently show ads or use affiliate links. If that changes, ads will always be clearly separated from content and affiliate links will be disclosed — see our affiliate disclosure and privacy policy.
