You’ve just purchased the perfect pattern. And, it includes a crochet chart. Looks like gibberish, doesn’t it?
Crochet charts are useful tools when working on complicated patterns or trying to decipher exactly what the designer is asking you to do. They come in handy when the written instructions are long and complicated.
Maybe you’re a visual learner and it’s easier to SEE where the stitches are worked rather than READ where to work them.
