being a slow crocheter is like. okay. one cardigan will take me at least sixty hours of work, and I might have to learn how to do flat granny stitching for the sleeves to avoid making more granny squares, but I'll have something cute to wear when all is said and done??

and then that eventually spirals into "Okay but I need to learn how to make tank tops so that I can make one to match the cardigan, and then I also hope I have enough left of my purple yarn so that I can make the waistband for a pair of shorts bc I want to have a whole set for when it gets warm!!" even though it's already warm and I might just be devoting literal hours of work into all of this for the next ten days so that I can have this entire thing done by June 1st

#mikey talks #crochet #I have 6 squares of like. 20-30 necessary completed and I've been working on the project for a good three days now #I'm gonna hopefully get enough to assemble the back done tomorrow and then thursday will get the front done #friday and saturday will be flat granny stitch/sleeve day #then sunday will be figuring out how to make the top and making it or at least starting #monday will be finishing the top if it's not done and if it is I'll start the shorts #and then keep working on them until they're done or I frog it out of frustration #I don't really wear the color combo I'm using (yellow and purple + also maybe a bit of white or brown or maybe even lavender?? idk)#but I'm super excited bc these shorts are gonna fit me super good and I'm gonna make sure I actually feel confident in the top!!#the cardigan is gonna be the most rewarding part methinks?? maybe
