been a while guys 😭

who guessed that school would be such a drain huh?

besides that, heres some old pics of fruit drawstring bags i made

i know they arent the best but i kept forgetting to take pics of them before i gave them away LOL

this isnt crochet but school started back up and ive got practice like everyday 😅 even less time to post…

so heres a lil throw back to when i made hats for some fruits LMAO

ive also made a crab and a snoopy!

i learned after i made the crab that i actually did the back of it inside out (dont ask i genuinely cant tell ya how bad i messed up to turn it inside out 🥲) i ended up giving it to my friend anyways but i plan on making a better one for them later…

i also made the snoopy for my friend as a way to get introduced to sewing parts together (ive found it really dont like sewing w darning needles, but i like “sewing” with my hook a lot!)

ive never been fully happy with how they both turned out and really would like to redo both of them to feel better about it

this whale bag pattern was my first ever time following a pattern! it was back in november-december 2023ish but i ended up making five in total :)

(one turned out too long because i couldnt count rows for the first time, its very obvious LMAO)

i adore the blue color though, i even sent one out to my friend in atlanta! (one went to my sister, thats why theres 3 in the last pic)

pattern by @/etm.studi0 over on IG and YT :D

once i figured out just how fast crochet was (i tried knitting a loooong time ago im p sure im not cut for it), i immediately had to make something for my bear, his name is BB :)

red is a good look on him and it was during the colder months..i need to make more for him bc hes my pride n joy <3

(peep me in the background LOL)

heres a collection of some of my earliest practice "works"!

the very small, one row blue piece was my very first attempt with crochet, I hadn't watched a single basics tutorial about crochet and tried just jumping it (didn't work bc I had no idea i had to turn the yarn lol)

it's missing most of my other rectangular and square pieces, I used to just do big swatches of the same kinda stitches and then switch back and forth between two types to build muscle memory

im actually very nostalgic looking at the circle pieces, magic ring was a huge pain to figure out because all the vids I watched were confusing, blurry, or used terminology I wasn't familiar with...I stopped crocheting for months because I was so frustrated. I'm proud of myself for picking it back up and pushing through to understand, and now I absolutely love magic circles!

welcome to nmt-yarn :D

disclaimer: ive never really used tumblr to post, let alone on the computer, so please forgive me for any unusual format choices..I'm trying my best

so the idea behind nmt-yarn is to record my progress on learning about crochet! i started a while ago, but was mostly in a practice mindset to help my stitches become more consistent. over time i also have picked up a little bit about different stitches and techniques, but this is in NO WAY a tutorial account (cause the point is learning hehe)

anyways- it's mostly going to be sparse posts with some explanations :) if you'd like, take a look around!
