okay so triangle shawls are actually way easier than they look I made my first real triangle shawl in spring 2022 when I was supposed to be organizing my closet but instead just sat on the couch for like three days straight.

okay so basically crochet projects by skill level So you’re asking about crochet projects and honestly there’s like a million things you can make but I’ll break it down by what’s actually doable.

Getting Started with Shrug Patterns okay so shrugs are actually way easier than they look which is great because I remember trying to make my first one back in spring 2022 and thinking I’d completely screwed it up until I realized the whole point is that it’s just a rectangle with sleeves basically.
