mom: what're you crocheting there?
me: uh... I'm not sure
mom: ???
me: I bought this yarn a long time ago and I just wanted to crochet something for no reason.
my reason: I'm bored of waiting. dear baby, please exit my uterus. it's about time.

Whatever it is itβs gorgeous yarn
yeah I love the colors! it's just some kind of sport weight acrylic that I picked up for cheap. holding it double and staggering the color changes makes it look nicer than it is π
Holding yarns double is a magic trick that makes great results π I have to post my hat soon
I started it in China where I couldnβt find golden yellow cotton yarn. So I got pale yellow and orange and held them double; better looking than if Iβd found what I wanted, I think!
I just took a crocheting class at a local yarn shop. My goal is to make bespoke beanies for myself since I can never find one that fits Just Right.
Learning a skill that does NOT involve a computer, phone, tablet or smart watch is 10^100^100 times more satisfying!!!!!!!!!
making a beanie that fits you just right is really easy! you'll get it in no time. if you need any help, let me know!
Thanks! Iβll post pics of it as I attempt it, I was told to make a large rectangle, connect the ends so it becomes a cylinder, then just gather up 4 corners and finish it off that way - I saw a hat made that way and it looks rad!
yeah! that's a great place to start. looking forward to seeing pics :)
