help me learn to crochet?

Hey everybody!

I realllly want to learn to crochet, but all the books I've found in my local stores are too expensive for me right now. I'll buy one eventually, lol, just cant this month. So I was wondering if me fellow crafters could help me out Happy

Do you know of any awesome websites that can teach me a few basic projects (with lots of photos/videos) ???

I really want to make some grociery totes made from plarn. I've already started making my plarn, so that when I finally learn to crochet well enough, I can make some Happy

Anyway Thanks in advance for any help!
