Materials are not included. How much yarn and what type of yarn you need will be discussed in the first module. 2. I teach in US crochet terminology. I do initially make references to British crochet terminology to help those that have only ever used British terminology. There is no need to be concerned about this since the stitches are the same they just have different "labels". You will quickly get used to US terminology if you have only previously used British terminology. Crochet is an international craft and to enjoy and take advantage of all the different designers and techniques &nbsp;from all around the world, you will need to get used to using US terminology and also get into the habit of checking whether a pattern is written in British or US terminology. 3. The live Q&amp;A sessions are exactly that - you ask me questions and I try to answer them as best as possible. They are not calls where I demonstrate techniques. There are extensive video tutorials for techniques.&nbsp;
