Okay, Let's Crochet!

How serendipitous! After having recently posted some drool-worthy images of 30s crocheted caps and such, I came across an awesome post devoted to a step by step visual crocheting tutorial over at The Further Adventures of a Thrifty Mrs!  Once you've got the basics of the chain stitch down, here is a vintage pattern to try out.
