Okay so basically there’s like endless stuff you can crochet I’m just gonna start with the easy stuff because that’s where most people actually begin even though everyone acts like you should jump into complicated patterns right away. Dishcloths are honestly the best first project and I made like twenty of them in spring 2022 […]
So You Want to Make a Crochet Cardigan Okay so the first time I actually finished a cardigan was spring 2022 and honestly I was watching way too much Succession while making it which probably explains why I kept losing count of my stitches.

Getting Started With Crochet Summer Tops So the first time I actually finished a wearable top was summer 2022 and honestly I was just tired of buying overpriced tank tops that didn’t fit right. Started with a really basic granny square situation because that’s what I knew how to do without looking anything up. The […]

The Pooh bear pattern is surprisingly straightforward once you get past the whole “making a sphere that actually […]
