I'm getting use to a few different ones. Some go too fast (or I'm not fast enough yet for them) I do have to pause and catch up on some. The one I want to learn and is bugging me now is the Petal Puff Stitch. Pulling yarn through 11 loops is almost more than my hands can handle today. I did see 2-3 different versions. I love how this works and I am determined to learn and conquer it. LOL. I love the shades of blue to lavendar one I've seen in a picture. Beautiful blanket. I do have 2 projects going now. Now and then I take a much needed break.

Bella Coco is my favorite.
I also like the Crochet Crowd, but there are many good ones.
There's a FB group called Crochet Playground. You'll have to ask for admittance into the group, but it doesn't take long to be admitted and they have a wealth of inspirational ideas and information. I highly recommend it.

@house_cat, I've watched both of them. I'm gathering some patterns and seeing what I think I'd like to do. Started on a blanket and a baby's hat. I'm eyeing a shawl too.

Learn the basic stitches, get your tension correct, and practice the stitches until they are really good - no loopy yarn. Do this before you tackle something like the Petal Puff stitch. Try just doinig the basics first.
