Crochet your baby's first project — even if you've never held a hook.
Lamamora turns tangled tutorials into calm, step-by-step lessons, so first-time makers finish real projects instead of a pile of half-made squares.
Learning crochet from random videos shouldn't feel like this
None of that means you're bad at this. It means nobody built a course for someone starting from exactly zero — until now.
A place built for a first stitch, not a shortcut
Lamamora is a members' site and app with one job: taking a first-time maker from an empty hook to a finished baby item, one calm lesson at a time.
Slow, close-up video lessons
Every stitch is filmed at hand height and played at a pace beginners can actually follow — pause, rewind, repeat without losing your place.
Patterns written in plain language
No unexplained abbreviations. Every pattern spells out what it means the first time it appears, then gets out of your way.
A path, not a pile
Projects are ordered by skill, not popularity, so each finished piece prepares you for the next one instead of starting over.
Everything you need, nothing you'll never open
60+ guided patterns
Blankets, hats, booties and soft toys, sorted from first stitch to first full project.
New crochet video every single day
Wake up to a brand-new step-by-step lesson every day, so you'll always have something fresh to learn and create.
8+ hours of video lessons
Filmed close-up, narrated slowly, with captions for watching on mute during naptime.
Printable pattern library
Export any pattern as a PDF to keep beside you while you work, no internet needed.
Size chart & yarn substitution guide
Adjust any pattern for a newborn through age two, and swap yarn without guessing.
Private community space
Post finished projects, ask questions, and get answers from makers a few steps ahead of you.
Three steps from empty hook to finished crochet
Pick your first project
Choose a beginner pattern that fits the time you actually have this week — most take under an hour a sitting.
Follow along, stitch by stitch
Watch the close-up video next to the written pattern. Pause whenever you need to — there's no clock running.
Finish a real crochet project
Share it in the community, then move to the next skill. Most members finish their first piece within two weeks.
A few of the first projects finished inside Lamamora
What it's like starting from zero
“I made this sweet baby set and loved how clearly the tutorial explained each piece. The instructions made the sizing and finishing details feel much less intimidating.”
“The cardigan looked complicated at first, but the step-by-step construction made each section manageable. I was really happy with the clean finished shape.”
“The animal toy was such a fun change from blankets and clothing. The instructions made the shaping and little details easy to understand, and it turned into a lovely baby-shower gift.”
“I wanted to make a handmade blanket before the baby arrived. The step-by-step lessons helped me keep my tension even and actually finish the whole project.”
“The romper looked much more complicated than it actually was. Once I followed the lessons row by row, the little button details and shaping finally made sense.”
“The little dress was such a rewarding project. The stitch explanations helped me keep the shape even, and the finished texture looked beautifully handmade.”
“These tiny crochet shoes were such a fun project. The instructions helped me keep both shoes even and get the little details looking neat.”
“I absolutely loved making this cozy baby cardigan. The pattern was easy to follow, and the step-by-step instructions helped me shape the sleeves and button band perfectly. It turned out soft, adorable, and exactly as pictured.”
“I loved working through this soft pastel blanket. The repeat was easy to practice, and seeing the colors build row by row made it especially satisfying.”
“This little teddy was one of my favorite projects. The shaping lessons made the ears, face, and body feel much simpler than I expected.”

Before you start
Do I need any crochet experience?
No. Loopnest starts with how to hold the hook and yarn, and builds up one stitch at a time. Most members have never crocheted before.
What yarn and hooks do I need?
Each pattern lists the exact yarn weight and hook size, plus a substitution guide if you can't find the exact one locally.
Is this a subscription?
No. It's a single payment of $39 for lifetime access to everything currently inside Lamamora, plus new patterns as they're added.
What if I get stuck on a pattern?
Post a photo or question in the community space. Most questions get answered within a day by another member or our team.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Loopnest works in any browser on phone, tablet, or computer, and patterns can be downloaded as PDFs for offline use.
