Crochet #1

_____________________________________________

Hii! So, I've recently got super into crochet and I figured out I should do a blog thingy to track my progress! I think that will be fun!

My final push to start was a crochet tutorial by Savannah Fletcher! Their tutorial shows how to crochet leg warmers, I've started the project and it was a little hard at first. It wasn't my first time crocheting, I did some of it in arts and crafts class in 7th/6th grade. Unfortunately, all of the stuff I used then and my knowledge of crotcheting got lost somewhere in the portal to the 6th dimension in my house that my socks like to get lost in... So I had to buy crotchet materials and learn everything again.

After some progress I gave up after the 3rd time I accidentally ripped the work thread...

I have only remains of the third and last attempt:

It was the prettiest attempt but I wasn't doing the half-double crochet right which I only realized while doing my second project TvT

My innability wasn't the only reason why I dropped it, I just thought it was too big of a project for first time for me. I wanted something smaller to gradually go up the scale and learn more.

So I'll get you one day! You tricky leg warmers!

My second ongoing project is arm warmers!

I lost my black arm warmers so I decided to crochet a pare of two white arm warmers :D logic :D

I learned from a tutorial by ABoC Studio!! I managed to finish my first attempt at it with some success! I'm not a big fan of it, it doesn't look as aesthetically pleasing as I'd like it to be but it only inspires me to do better!

The tutorial shows how to make longer arm warmers, unfortunately, I measured incorrectly and as means of giving up I did a shorter version. They fit a bit tight which is my fault.. but hey! They fit and I can wear them!! I finished a project!! I call this a victory!

I'm currently working on my second attempt which I measured right! I think it looks good already!

It's still a work in progress but I'm sure it'll turn out great! Wish me luck!!

I have a YouTube playlist with stuff I want to crochet or just inspiration for crocheting. I don't want to post my YouTube channel here because it's completely off-topic

but I have an idea! In every post, at the bottom, there will be a link to one of the videos in the playlist!

Go give some love to the awesome ikoxun with their tutorial on crocheting a patchwork cardigan!
