Hey, I do crochet I learnt during in lockdown from YouTube and once I’d learnt the basics you can start to read patterns to make basically anything you like. I love it, it’s a great distraction for me. Here are some things I’ve made. Keep me updated with how you’re getting on with it.

HEY!!!!! I started crocheting and I made a headband as my first project!!! I think it was too small for my head but I gave it to a friend as a gift. I only bought one ball of yarn when I started out so I am going to get some more from hobby craft. I find it so relaxing and a great way to pass time especially because I am off school now. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I am so far.
PS @Dandelion your projects look so cool I am definitely feeling inspired!

Siena

@Dandelion I love them. So cute!

How did you learn to do the middle one?

And that’s cool @naomi

I’m finding crochet really hard. I think I put too much tension on it. I’m trying knitting aswell which I found easier. So far I’ve done this. Just practicing. Not making anything.

I want to make teddy a jumper.

I have done it very tight and thick

Do need to practice less

@Shaunie i found crochet a lot harder than knitting at first too, I could never get my hands in the right place when crocheting lol you eventually get used to it though. I did the middle one by following a YouTube tutorial it was just a little blanket that I attached a rabbit toy to. I admit that one is probably the hardest one I’ve done but it was doable by watching the video.

A little knitted jumper for teddy is such a cute idea 🥺🥺

Also want to mention that wilko sell yarn at least the one by me does, it’s great they do quite a few colours and it’s pretty cheap

I wanna join in too!

Siena

Ah really thanks. Ah funny you say Wilko cause I was in there ages trying to find wool and I just couldn’t find any or didn’t know where they’d put it

Salix! Try it. It’s quiet therapeutic and can make cute things like @Dandelion
How long did it take to do them? Dandelion?

@Shaunie the little Apple only took me a couple of hours but the other two took me longer I can’t remember exactly but I did it over a few days. The timings probably aren’t that reliable though because I normally watch tv whilst doing it so I can get distracted lol

Siena

Ah cute!

I did this last night while watching something on Netflix





Im trying to make teddy a jumper and this will be chest part but i don’t know if I’ve done it too small
